Glenn had asked me one night if we could shoot a Calendar for Charity and I immediately said yes (as you do). THEN he said that it might include some 'naked' shots. Having shot Glenn previously doing some extreme ironing, I shouldn't have been suprised . . but I was ! Not at the idea of the shoot, at least with the extreme ironing shoot we could a) Hide his modesty behind the ironing board and b) he wore boxer shorts and I was shooting from the bottom of a large hill while he was at the top.
The problem you see, was the logistics of being able to cover up the 'region' while he was cycling. Obviously while riding, the old tallywackle gets thrown around a bit so we needed to find a way of shooting quickly (so his bits didn't freeze off), and still get the shot that covers his decency as the old man could make an appearance. Anyhow, Glenn made an effective and very amusing safeguard. He should really be the one to describe his invention though as it was a classic.
The day just got funnier as it went on, with people walking their dogs near by (we had tried to find a secluded spot but this is getting more difficult in our crowded country), having to do re-shoots and generally Glenn's mucking about. We all had a great time and hopefully got a couple of decent shots that can be used for his Calendar...
