Standing around on all these photo shoots over the years, I've often been asked to "stand in" whilst the photographer sets up the shot. This was usually only till the model showed up. I have, however, been the model or extra on a few photos mainly to be in the background or to help make up a 'crowd'. I was once, and I won't bore you with it here, a film extra in a Walt Disney film!

Back in the mists of time, I commisioned a wonderful photographer called Garry Owens to shoot some bikes on location for Halfords. I was "cyclist in the distance" on that shoot. Years later Garry has called me for various "extra work", the mask shots here being the latest. Garry also took the Ford S-Max cyclist shot. And if you didn't already guess, that's my lovely bum and legs in the photo. (The upper body is another model, long story!)

A big thank you to Garry for letting me use these images.
