My Transport Snapshots | POB Photo Contest
Hello everyone! This is my first entry to the @friendlymoose's proof of brain photo contest which I find particularly interesting as I have pictures in my archive on this week's photo theme.
The theme for this contest is transport. Here is a picture I took of a busy major dual carriageway in Ikeja, Lagos.
Day and night, this highway is always busy and the traffic is usually heavy. Can you see the overhead bridge in the first photo? It makes it easy for pedestrians to cross the road to the other side.
I was going to the other side anyway so I took this shot first then another from the overhead bridge looking down on the vehicles as they passed.
The yellow buses are public transport we take to move from one destination to another. You also have the option of driving your private car or walking as you can see in the photo below.
I quickly sneaked this photo as this man walked by and hoped he did not see me doing it. Haha. Not everyone likes to be photographed by strangers. I just hope no one has photographed me like this without my knowledge! LOL.
I invite you to participate in this contest by clicking HERE. Thank you for visiting my blog.
All pictures in this post are mine, taken with my Huawei Y9 phone, unless otherwise stated.

Thats Lagos for you. We are used to the traffic jams though it's a lot improved compared to 3-4 years ago.
How did your show go? From your grin, I'm sure it was a success. Too bad you did not take some pictures so we could feast their eyes on our budding young actress. 😄
Great then.
You bet it was. We all put in our everything so no one gets a carry-over. Lol.
☺️ I am seriously blushing but yep! Too bad I don't have a photo to show.
Many people don't like the fact that strangers have to take a photo of them, why because they don't know what they want to do with their picture.
I also don't like being photographed by a stranger. LOL
Hi am a newbie here and am already learning from this platform.

Nice picture from our beloved Lagos state, I am not a lagosian, I think I have been there just 2wice , but there is what I can say.
Every other state in the country looks up to Lagos, but the only reason why some people can’t live there is mainly because of the traffic
Oko oni baje , Lagos state and traffic is like 5&6
Hahahah! 5 and 6 indeed. Thanks for your kind comment. 😊
Agreed. The traffic jams scare a lot of people but having stayed here for years, we are used to navigating our way around.
Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
Thanks for sharing dear
The terrible thing is that when you are stuck in a traffic jam
Delhi too is full of traffic jams here and there.
Good snaps dear kemmyb, I wonder how you clicked that man without his knowledge, thank God he didn't notice hahaha 😂😂
Good luck for the contest😊
Really? Hehe, that means you know what we go through as well. I dislike traffic jams but we have government authorities responsible for handling these situations.
Thanks dear for your kind comments on my posts. 😊
Cool street photography, @kemmyb!
Thank you. 🙂
People can actually make a melodrama when they notice you are taking pictures of them without their consent, and given the world we are living in today, I would advice you trade with caution!
Good luck with the contest!
Nice shots.
