Do you ever discuss candids with friends or co-workers?

Do you tell them about TheCandidBoard ?

[Satan]

I voted: Yes, regularly

Most of my friends know about my hobby and tcb.

But if I meet someone for the first time most of the time I ask them what kind of sites or photography they enjoy. I of course get a feel for what they are into before telling them how I enjoy candids. Some people could get freaked out and think of me of a stalker or something. They just don't get it that is more about capturing a moment in time of the subject.

If of course they seem open to it and I think they would enjoy this site... I tell them about it.

[utter]

none of the above.

It's not that I'd be ashamed to, it's just that I quite like the anonymity.

For me it's more about keeping up appearances (pretentious sounding, I know) but most of the people I know have this really shiny image in their head of me as the boy-next-door type, mainly because that is the image that I try to project.

This kind of façade, this duality that I live is just normal for me, but for others in my community, their faith that I am 'that nice boy down the street' that they invite to their church fêtes and car bingo afternoons, is imperative to their existence. The very fabric of their fragile little community could rupture given the knowledge that one of Satan's spawn lived amongst them and dreamed of fondling their innocent teenage daughters.

No, but not because I would be ashamed to, but for the sake of the innocent, juicy teenage daughters who will be old enough to photograph soon enough.

No, because it is sometimes easier to get what you want in life when you lie by omission ("You didn't know that I was a pervert?, well you didn't ask... I thought it was obvious, which is why I said nothing")

There are one or two people outside tcb who know that I love downblouses, but they have no fukcing idea how much or the extent of my addiction.

i show to some, who i know they like it as a internet curiosity. camoumax

I let a fgew of my winmen in on the site
but we are all pervs so I could care less what they think

I am however waiting for the day that someone figures out about the site that I am not prepared to explain it to

I do actually. I have told several friends and they are all sort of amazed. The last couple were a little weirded out though. One of them was with me when I took the Spring Break 2007 shots and he told me that it "creeped him out". Oh well. I actually convinced a couple dudes to take pics with me. I'm not ashamed but I do only tell certain people.

[johndoe2007]

I dont shoot anymore, but when I did it wasn't candid's..it was voyeur, inside one of the local locker rooms at the work out place, and the tanning bed there. And I did the local mall and high school upskirts, and got busted one day..and havent shot since.but that was back a few years and now im.too scared, I wish I still had them files!

BUT ..if I did shoot, I'd be to embarassed to talk to others about it, unless I knew they did it too, that may be different....

that sounds kind of funny at first, but that is unfortunately true for me too, but i am hooked on upskirts instead of downblouses. Damn I wish I was not a perv! I kind of hate it actually... to be normal in this regard would be awesome to me...

but yeah I have told one of my friends a while ago about the pics I took on halloween and let him sign on with my username but that was before I got really involved.

ANYONE that knew me would be really freaked out and probably not want to know me any longer if they saw the kind of shit I posted here... the only appreciation I get for my "skills" are from you, my fellow perves. I know I am not amazing or anything but it is a difficult hobby!

I actually was showing off my hipshot aiming skills to one of my photographer friends the other day... he was impressed. I told him I practice a LOT

[the-observer]

yep , thed , I feel some identical things in your story for me. About the time to find the spot etc etc...

I don't speak about this passion of candids to someone. I just say that sometimes I take pics of people in the streets but I don't show any pics to anyone ( a few at my girl, without hot/sexy girls !!!). Sometimes I want to reveal a part of the truth to my girlfriend beause it's hard to lie to her (even if it's by omissions)... But even if she is cool I'm afraid about her reaction.

bye

There are many girls at work that I would love to take candids of, and I think a lot of guys I work with would agree that upskirts and downblouse shots would be plentiful. I just don't think I could talk to fellow employees about it though.
