The good ladies at Muni Manners have announced a transit photo contest. They’re calling for submissions from now until September 15. It doesn’t matter if you’re reading this from Bayview or Baton Rouge (I’m assuming there’s a bus system there) — the ladies are looking for shots of any system, including international ones.
