It isn't a bus, it isn't a train, its like the things they have in airports to shuttle you between terminals. It has a driver and is kind of like a bus.
It seems to me that there is a connection between cameras and watches, especially mechanical film ones and automatic or complicated watches, or at least I'm interesed in them. Something about mechanical things! I haven't adjusted my auto winder in six months! I like the duality of a autowinding watch being purely mechanical, but relying on organic me to provide the power for it.
Throw in fountian pens for good measure.
I really wanted to get one of those Tag Huer V4 watches when they come out, but I doubt it will ever be made and I can't afford one anyway.

I have been known to fiddle with writing instruments. I like old Parker's (mainly because I like the company history) but like Waterman, Conklin, Shaffer's too.
I didn't mean to sidetrack your thread...just had to respond.
very cool image. i like it. reflection on the bus is an excellent touch. my only minor nitpick is, the tower is too close to the frame. if you have cropped the image, adding a little on the right would certainly help imho.
btw you live in one of my all time favourite cities. i love rockies and visit denver very often. thanks for sharing this excellent image of downtown.
Mark,
Another great shot from Denver. The last one looked a little nautical and this one is just darn good. Wonderful contrast between the speed of the people mover and the crystal clear focus on the buildings.
Best of luck,
Tom
Thanks everyone. It was a cold and dark Saturday morning! Between work, my two-year old, and getting ready to move I really have only about an hour to shoot a week. Really forces me to plan out shots and locations ahead of time!

Mark,
Sharper Image has the perfect gift for the guy who has everything - an automatic winder for the autowinding watch that you either (1) don't wear often enough to autowind, or (2) don't move around enough to autowind.
