We went to Malpas this year and had a great time . Nice photos David

From what you say...I'm afraid where ever you might be with your kids you're going to have one hell of a job preventing your kids from being photographed I would say...You say you were at Malpas rally ? then just ask yourself how many people you saw there taking photographs ! yes too many for you to count in a day and photos being taken from all angles of the show no matter where you and your kids are standing at whichever shows you visit you are bound to be on a thousand or two photos somewhere !, And this is something we cannot do anything about unless you wish to carry round a huge Placard saying " Please DO NOT take photos of my kids" !

I personally believe that people are taking photos because of their personal interest in the exhibits at steam & vintage shows etc for their own interest and I'm quiet positive that the owners of exhibits do not at all mind people taking photos of them and sometimes we just happen to be somewhere near when a camera clicks.

I'm more worried about the photos of my home and property on Google Earth to be bothered about anything else it's absolutely diabolical and a complete blueprint on a plate for thief's.


Cheers
