Well done David. FYI - next time (!) try and get the casualty in the same frame as the bus - that would have been the pic the paper would have wanted. I know it's easy to say that, but shuffle right to the front, go vertical, casualty and team at the bottom of frame, the front of the bus at the top. A couple of shots rattled off before you're asked to step back and bingo. Under the circumstances, you did well.
