From what I have seen so far, IrishBoy, you make very good use of your time when you are in Gaswork Park. I know what its like. Girls are all around but you can't be everywhere at once. And time is relatively short although some girls do linger on a bit. But most dress quickly. That said, ones finger is constantly on the shutter button.
I get nervous just thinking about what you have to do to get a years worth of naked pics in just a half an hour or so.
And if bikers decide to throw you off and make an unusual entrance or exit, you can be left behind with a limp camera rather than an erect one
The painting party is easier. But Gaswork Park can go boom or bust for me.
Question - have you shot at any of the preride painting parties, or do you just hang around Gasworks? Because if the answer is no, you have missed another 10,000 photo ops - mostly close up..
cheers,
