For Flickr, I try to maintain a reasonable standard, where possible. But at an event like this, the odd elbow (or bloody iPhone!) in shot is almost unavoidable at times.
Despite my general feeling of antipathy towards snappers, looking at the actual pics shows that many smiled, waved and were generally quite happy being snapped. The one good thing with using a big grey lens is that no one can say you're trying to hide what you're doing...and as it's a professional lens, the majority of people realise you're a fairly serious snapper and not one of the properly dodgy lot.

There's something really buzzing about this year's ride. Not that public nudity is the norm yet and the chances of having yourself snapped for eternity in your birthday suit is very high, but it's more about how much it has reached out to so many folks who just a couple of years ago... would have never even thought this ride ever existed at all! Just read on FB that two female doctors rode in the nude on Saturday...
I started an index (kind of) capturing closeups of roughly 40 topless or fully nude ladies... but I bet I've covered barely half of them... the diversity of this year's turnout is mind-boggling!
