#1953 - Wolfgang Suschitzky

“I was always quite content to be a good craftsman.” 

~ Wolf Suschitzky

When I was growing up in London as a little kid I would sit on the top level of a double decker bus and pretend to be driving it and dreamed of one day actually being a bus driver when I grew up. Well that never quite worked out but I revisit that fantasy every time I look at this photograph.

Wolf’s genius was to shoot it in the sleet and snow. It just wouldn’t have the same effect if it had been shot in Springtime or a warm summer’s day.
