I saw a bus today, and I could tell exactly what part of it I wanted to photograph, but alas! I didn't have my camera with me! So I concentrated on it and thought, "I can draw that." So above is a drawing of a detail on a tour bus I saw today.
Is this getting too esoteric?
UPDATE: I saw the same bus again after doing the above illustration, and was happy to see I had gotten it exactly right.

LOVE it. Get closer!
I saw that and thought...This is not as ugly as usual. I guess because you drew it. But wait, you were going for ugly...
I know these are called "ugly" but I don't see that as what you're doing -- I see it as ultimately an optimistic idea. Beauty is beauty, and I see elegance in your choices.
Thanks, all!
The idea of photographing ugly tour buses started as a way to simply document their weird, ugly designs. Eventually, however, it morphed into a "making a silk purse out of a sow's ear" idea, to make beautiful photographs of ugly objects. So the intention now is to NOT make ugly photographs.
"Get closer!"
Hahahahah!
I guess I wasn't careful with my words. I mean it looks more polished. It lacks the weathered look that the photos have.
