Paedophiles do not get off on photos of little girls in skirts on swings or slides.
Unfortunately, my guess is that they do. Photos of children in my flickr stream do seem to often attract a disproportionate amount of attention. The more bare flesh on display, the more they attract. I am now very careful posting pictures of kids in the pool, on the beach or even with too much bare leg to restrict access to known contacts. While doing a bulk upload I accidentally included a couple of pictures of my kids in the bath and similar (no full nudity). The next day the viewcount had climbed to 50 or so for each of that kind of photos - even as a baby in the sink! A head and bare shoulders shot attracted 30 viewings. It's a sick world out there.

The met have guidance on their website about photography. It is clear that they are not allowed to delete photos.

In addition to contacting your local MP I would also consider contacting Austin Mitchell MP who has previously take up the issue of photographers' rights in parliament.

If it was a waste of time they wouldn't have put one (electronic version) on the K5.

Personally I don't think you need to delve into quantum theory. General relativity will suffice for the idea you propose. And no-one has come up with anything very satisfactory yet for quantum relativity (or quantum gravity or whatever other variation it is referred to), although some whacky ideas exist involving any number of dimensions beyond Einstein's four.

At £170 it might be the DA-L version.

My 16-45 has always been the same. I clean it every so often and it helps a bit.

Attempted retirement at 39. Eight years on it's probably time to pull my finger out.
