[QUOTE=D_Arvy1;973566]I still have mixed feelings about posting pictures of the non pros, but I guess they know what they're in for. QUOTE]
My 2 cents worth on this subject. For those who don't know, when you pay your admission to enter NAP, you are handed a memo along with your tickets which says something like this; "There are professional and amateur photographers on site, and if you proceed beyond this point, your likeness WILL be captured by cameras. The photographer will become owner of your likeness. If you do not wish to be photographed, DO NOT proceed beyond this point.” Pretty fair warning as to what is going on inside the gates.
The Pondersoa is a nudist resort, and except for the 2 days of NAP, cameras are not allowed. So if you want to spend a peaceful and private day in the buff, go on another day! Cameras are an integral part of NAP. The big draw to NAP is that spectators have the chance to photograph hordes of naked women. And if you are a woman spectator and want to avoid cameras, simply keep your clothes on! Thankfully, a pretty substantial group of amateur women enjoy getting naked in front of a crowd, and being photographed (my wife included). I have seen very few NAP audience members complain about being photographed. In fact, if you walk down a city street taking photographs of random people you will probably hear more complaints than while taking pics of the NAP audience.
Are there rude photographers? Sure. Make an effort to be polite. Asking before taking pics is appreciated and smart, as it will likely get you a better pose and a smile. Probably the most annoying photographers are those who sit in front of a woman endlessly, snapping off pics and not saying a word. When photographing girls in the audience, say “Hi”. Politely request a pose. Compliment the girl. You will end up with better pictures, and it will be more enjoyable for us all. Most of the audience girls expect to be photographed nude, and many get a thrill out of it. In fact, I sometimes feel bad for the less attractive girls who don’t get much attention. IMO if you want to be extra polite, stop by one of the older/less attractive girls and make a big deal about taking her picture. Tell her how sexy she is and thank her profusely. You will probably make her day!
By all means please continue photographing and posting images of grls in the audience!
