Going back to Klondike's remarks, the guys with the phone cameras are no different than just about everybody I rode past last week! Thousands of shots were taken, many as close as that (why anyone would want a photo of me is doubtful). What we had trouble with was guys with small video cams and compact digitals standing next to a group of girls getting painted and clicking away
without asking.
We talked about it last week at the rides and decided that if the guy had a 'big one' (lens, that is), he was probably a pro and working for the press. If he looked 'out of place' (e.g. fully dressed and middle aged male)
and tried to get a 'close up', he was a 'perv' (read that as girly talk for being a member here
).
The secret is 'Just ask', if the answer is no, back off and take shots from a longer distance. Many girls I spoke to last week about this, says they knew they would end up being naked on the internet, but 'what the hell', they would just avoid looking for photos of WNBR's for a while!
