Every day. I was walking 30,000 steps a day in NYC. Only one out of a party of 5 with no foot complaints. Plus i'm now old enough to accept function over fashion! :lol:

One of Mrs Ds from this morning's parkrun, she does the volunteer photography some times.

Floppy hair which doesn't hide the fact it's receding, "fun" sunglasses, running as a hobby.

Oh yeah, 40 is coming for me hard :thumbup:

Yeah she gets the peeps at the front too ;)

Best thing is, that photo was taken with a 500mm lens from bloody miles away. I didn't even know where she was shooting from or that she was shooting at all, until well after I'd gone past.

Which just shows I'm grinning cause I'm an idiot, not for the photo.

Often the case - it's possibly a better photo for your not having been aware that it was being taken.

No offence!

Nah none taken at all, that's exactly why she does it!

Our wedding was done by a guy who was essentially a paparazzi, he had three cameras around his neck and 99% of the photos are candid spur of the moment ones the subject wasn't aware of.

That's the sort of photos I used to take at weddings for friends. Way better in lots of ways than the traditional versions, more real and less 'stiff'!!

We found him via this lot.

We got him when he'd just become a member and he was £900 (in 2014), I checked a few years ago and he was £3500!
