Ok, I've been toying with posting my own photos for ages, but never so far got round to it, partly because of a lack of shots, but mainly through shyness!

However, I think it's about time I overcame that - so here are some shots Nurse Wendy took of me, on the south coast a few weeks back, while we were preparing for a shoot. I've always taken the line that I'd never ask a model to do something I wouldn't do myself, plus with sea or river shoots, I always go in first to show the models how deep the water is and see how smooth / walkable the bottom is. So I tend to go in the water fully dressed, wearing one of my own gunge outfits, at least as often as the ladies do, it's just that there ususally isn't anyone to take photos!

These are the first photos Wendy's ever taken with a "big" camera, and I must admit, while I'm definetly no model (I *really* need to exercise more!), she did a pretty good job!

The dungarees are proper genuine American farmers ones, bought from a farm shop in the Midwest when I was over there visiting a friend a few years back. The green wellies are local though, from B&Q! I think the work shirt is from Alexandra.

Enjoy!

It's Reggie Perrin if he worked on the factory floor instead of management!

Indeed - must do that again some time.

Big bloke in wet dungarees - works for me!!

All it needs is a slim blonde in dungarees to join him (I see they have some nice denim ones on Ebay...)

Why thank you! <fx: bows to the nice lady>

You'd be more than welcome to join in any time!

Know what you mean about eBay, I keep an eye on it, and I've won some rather nice dungarees, and a lovely 80s high-fashion jumpsuit. Needless to say, a thoroughly messy fate at the hands of our ladies awaits both outfits!

Thanks again for the kind comments, here's a couple more that Wendy took after we'd done the shoot. She's still in her dripping wet nurse's uniform at this point - not often you see someone dressed like that, soaking wet, taking photos! We had quite an audience of mostly elderly folk, wonder what they made of it all.

I like those.

Bill and I have larked about in the sea for fun on several occasions (the silliest being our Pirates of the Caribbean frolic!) and other people just think we are mad - or very pissed. I wanted to go in the pub wet but being an afternoon it was shut. Anyway, my point is simply that people seem very tolerant of wet fun on the beach so, guys and girls, go for it.
