Flâneurs June challenge: Theme I: Buses

[kake]

Hello flaneurs! Here is the first theme for your June challenge: buses.

To recap: I will post sets of instructions grouped into three themes. To complete the challenge, all you need to do is make an attempt during June to follow at least one set of instructions from each theme. A small prize (details still being arranged) will be offered to everyone who does at least one theme!

You may report back on your attempt at the "buses" theme either in a comment to this post, or in a top-level post of your own. Your report can be as brief or as lengthy as you like.

( Theme I: Buses: Four sets of instructions under the cut. )

Please do let me know if anything in the above is confusing or needs more explanation.

The London Elephant Parade 2010: Themed Flanage

[nanila]

Ampersand & me


Last summer, 258 elephant statues temporarily graced the streets and buildings of London before being auctioned off for charity. I spent several weeks combing the city with the aid of the very unspecific map supplied by the sponsors to find them. (Really, that map was terrible. I went through a lot of shoe leather on a couple of evenings just to find one or two elephants.) I eventually managed to see them all, although I had to wait until they were all gathered at the Royal Hospital Chelsea at the end of June to catch the final 25 that I’d missed.

My photos of most of them in their “natural” habitats, from Green Park to Selfridges to Bond Street to Notting Hill, can be viewed in a set on Flickr. I include a small selection behind the cut.
