For over four decades I have been a rail and bus photographer.
However, during this time I have aimed the lens at other subjects, be they different transportation, scenery, buildings and other bollocks.
Given these do not really fit the scope of my other sites, I felt compelled to set up a new site so as to inflict my other photographic garbage upon the world. While primarily Philippine and Australian content, there will be the occasional forays into Fiji and Hong Kong. Perhaps other locations should the current pandemic ever allow it.
So sit back and enjoy, or hate, even be indifferent. That choice is purely up to you.

2023: SM NORTH TRANSPORT ACTION
Another monumental 'Brad N Virls' adventure.
The air was thick with the sounds of bustling engines, horns, and the distant hum of chatter as we made our way to SM North on North Avenue, cameras in hand and excitement on high alert.
This wasn’t just another day in Manila—it was a mission to capture what is quickly becoming a rare sight: the iconic traditional jeepneys, a staple of Philippine streets for generations.
With each visit, the need to record the traditional jeepney, the Philippines' heart and soul, becomes increasingly urgent.
It was only the start of a four-week holiday, and 'Brad and Virls' were already immersed in Manila’s vibrant energy, cameras clicking away.
This Philippine trip promised to be a journey across the islands, with adventures on Negros and Panay still to appear here on the blog, and our YouTube channel. But today, the mission was clear: capture the spirit of Manila’s street icons—traditional jeepneys, their modern counterparts, and the bustling local buses.
These photos, along with more tales from the islands, will soon find a place on this blog, along with our main railway site, sharing every kilometre of this fun adventure.
