Maybe we should pass the hat and hire someone to harrass Roy full-time.

Either that, or anonymous calls to his local constabulary....

Very covert. They disguise themselves as coyotes and gila monsters.

Coyotes and Gila Monsters would not be a very effective disguise in this country I'm afraid Roger!

Empty crisp packets and McDonalds wrappers would work over here, but if they really wanted to blend in and look like part of the scenery they should disguise themselves as speed cameras, we have thousands of them :-)

No need for that, just guess the right location in the WAIN thread and forget to post a new picture for 10 hours. Roy loves that! :lol:

Yes, but they are gradually being removed (the speed cameras, I mean)!

I had a lot of hassle from a man when I was photographing his 8-years old girl - at the request of her mother. But generally hassle seems to be pretty low, so long as you don't set out to look suspect. In my experience most hassle these days comes from private security guards who don't want you photographing their buildings.

Unnecessarily rude, if I may say so.

I think I agree with you. At least, my experience would tend to confirm that.
