oooook. 6 phone calls later (that was actually 6 believe it or not)

Some of the men rowing are 17 & the odd one is 16 thus they are minors (under 18) & i need a blue card just as the shop santa getting his photo taken with the kids at xmas time needs one to work with minors.

All sorted...I will have full permission soon.

Gus,

Just curious....what's a blue card?

There are is a round of the surf life boats (http://members.iinet.net.au/~jscott/city/cpsc0021.jpg) at the gold coast tomorrow & ive just phoned & they have said no photography :huh

Anyone else found this ? I'm well aware you cant shoot the nipper events & im actually for that but an adults event...from the public viewing area of the beach.

I know i could stand there & just shoot it & tell them to get the cops to remove me but im not about to do that. Whats it about ? The pro's tears or the club itself ?

Gus do you recall some idiot who was taking photos of the Iron Man event and the images were showing up on a Gay Sight but they had edited the shots to show only the section of the groin area?

I think you may find it might be part of the reason....... only takes one person to stuff it up for everyone else........ Skippy (Australia)

I can understand the system but in a way its sad the world has to come to these things. Not so long ago they were going to ban all cameras from all Sydney beaches all the time for the same reasons. An incident occurred with mobile phone cameras in change rooms if I recall correctly. Skippy is right. There are some idiots out there who just ruin it for everyone. The world is just going mad:crazy
