Saturday 23rd January 2010

This week has been mainly wet and dull in this area, all the snow has now gone and the rivers are swollen with the melt. A lot of the fields have large puddles on them with the rest being very muddy. Because of this we have not been out much this week, and have spent a lot of time on the web site.

The site (Naturist–corner) is really taking off at the moment with loads of new members still joining. It’s great to see the cross section of people joining from all parts of the country, we have even had a few more people join us from other countries. This is great as they can let us know the views on naturism in their country and the best places to visit there including the beaches that are available for nudists. We welcome all reports on clubs/beaches/places that are used for naturism, as this helps us all when we are looking at where to go and things to do.

On another note today there has been a protest in London by a group of photographers protesting about the heavy handedness of the police in the stop and search measures they were given by the anti terror laws. They have been frequently stopping photographers telling them they can’t take photos in certain areas or of certain places as they could be used for terror purposes. This is not what the rules are actually there for and a recent ruling by the EU says that the law is not valid although this is being appealed at the moment. Full story can be read at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8476318.stm and there is a website and facebook page for the group that organise these events. This is the Bust Card that the group give out and encourage all photographers to carry, see the link for more details.

    In this part of our article we were trying to make people aware of the problems a lot of photographers are experencing in our country since the new anti terrorist law has come into effect. The police are being heavy handed in dealing with people who are taking photos of various venues including various historic buildings, some factories, airports etc. They have even tried to stop people taking photos at events. Their actions have included taking peoples cameras and locking them up under the pretex of terror laws. While we understand the threat terrorists pose we like many others disagree with the way the police are handling this. The police have been told that they are not allowed to stop people taking photos of these places etc and have chosen to ignore this and carry on anyway, this prompted court action and the European ruling that the law is actually illegal. The government and police however are appealing this decision and intend to carry on with the practise.
    Hope this helps you understand it a bit more.
