While the past few months have seen our winning pictures soaking up the sun or traipsing through the slopes, our November Best Bus winner has taken a different route.
Manging to capture the perfect lightning strike behind their Scania coach, Robert Murdoch from Ventura proves that sometimes the dark and eery can prevail.

Last month’s winner, courtesy of Sonia King, was a tough contender to beat, transporting us back in time to the 1940s.
This month’s winner didn’t take the crown too easily either, with another busy month of photo entries for Best Bus vying it out for top spot.
Mark Powell’s shot of a Premier Motor Service coach among the dry Australian landscape was a close contender, while Steve Smith sent through a flurry of snaps of his new Yutong C12 for Dragon Tours and Limousines that he is very chuffed with.
“We are extremely happy with our acquisition and are in fact so happy that we will be taking delivery of a second one in December 2024,” Smith told ABC.
A Pitt’s Coach Tours coach was seen getting cosy with some painted silos at Rosebery in Victoria, courtesy of Sharon and Colin Pitt, while Joshua Adams sent through a picture of a Bayside Coaches Volvo B11R and Coach Concepts coach at The Devils Marbles in the Northern Territory.
Ultimately however, it was Robert Murdoch from Ventura that has taken home the crown for November, with their stunning storm shot.
“The bus is a 2022 Scania K410CB Euro 6 6×2 with a Coach Design body,” Canovan told ABC.
“The picture was taken at our Dandenong depot during a storm.”
For their win, Murdoch received a free 12-month subscription to ABC Magazine, while the winning photo is live as ABC’s Facebook page cover for all of November.
