Stolen bocking photos on Getty?
« on: November 19, 2011, 11:21:08 PM »
I was stumbling around the internet as you do and I found an article on bocking and it had a picture licensed by Getty, this got me intriuged so i searched Getty for "Jumping stilts" and lo and behold a bunch of recognisable photos:

That's what I have said to DK on facebook but he continues to go off on oneā€¦
