Perhaps something like this:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
#
#

# set the url to the security camera
url="<insert url to camera image here>"

# create a temp directory to hold the downloaded
# images
tmpDir="/tmp/camphotos"
if [ ! -d $tmpDir ]
then
    mkdir $tmpDir
fi

# use curl command to fetch the file and rename it
# on the fly
cd $tmpDir
curl -L -o Bus1+$(date +'%m%d%Y_%T').jpg -C - $url

# store the name of the file we just downloaded
new_image=$(ls -ltr $tmpDir | tail -n1 | awk '{print $NF}')

# use curl to upload it to ftp server
curl -u busprotect:busprotect -T $new_image ftp://10.0.0.51/

# done
exit 0

ftp(4)								   File Formats 							    ftp(4)

NAME

       ftp - FTP client configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/default/ftp

DESCRIPTION

       Use  the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment  lines and
       are ignored.

   Behavior Directives
       The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:

       FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no

	   The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to
	   make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes
	   by default.

       If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that	is
       specified in /etc/default/ftp.
