A couple of pieces of advice for you.

If you a using a phone or pocket camera you can generally not control the shutter speed, so you will generally get better photos if the subject is still, especially in poor light. Again because you will generally get a very slow shutter speed in poor light you will get camera shake blurring the photograph, so if you can rest your phone/camera on some railings if possible, or hold it against a lamp post.


You will see from the attached photo I took last night of 4535 it is possible to get a clear photoin this light. I did this by waiting for the bus to stop in traffic, then holding my camera against a bus shelter to make sure it remained still

Firstly, it's great that you're out taking pictures of buses at your age - and everyone has to start somewhere. Tony's advice is excellent - shutter speed is the main thing to consider. If using a phone it can indeed be tricky to get a sharp photo, so leaning or bracing the phone against something sturdy is ideal. Another important thing to consider is keeping your lens clean. Phones have tiny lenses so even the smallest smear or speck can stop the camera from focusing properly. It needs to be done gently so as to avoid any scratches but you can use those lens wipes for glasses, using a clean tissue for any residue.

Keep going - i'm looking forward to seeing the progress that you make and i'm sure it won't be long!
