Over 50? Like to pose?

Saw this on the SF Randonneurs list and figured I'd repost here....

$180 to stand around in your spandex and pose for a few hours? It gets windy out at Dillon Beach, but still sounds like a dream gig.


My name Alex Sherman and I work for Jim Erickson, a commercial
photographer based out of Petaluma, CA.
https://www.ericksonstock.com/
We are casting for cycling stock photography shoot that we are doing
this coming Sunday (4/26/09) and we thought the San Francisco
Randonneurs could help.
We are looking for three to five cyclists, women and men, ranging in
age from 50 - 75.
We would like the individuals to be in good
physical condition and live an active lifestyle.
We will be shooting from 3 PM to Sunset out at Dillon Beach, CA. We
will be shooting the cyclists riding as well as off the bicycles in a
lifestyle photographic style.
We are able to pay $180.00 to the individuals for their time.
Please forward this email to anyone you think would be appropriate and
able to work with us. We do realize that this is short notice but
hopefully we will find people in time for Sunday.
If possible we would like prospective talent to email a photo of
themselves to us when they contact us.
Please email me here at Alex@...
Thank you for your time and for helping us out with our photo shoot.
All my best,
Alex

No, you'd still be a poser.

The more people that show up, the more you have to split that $180.

Hmmmm, isn't that a nude beach down there? What kind of photo shoot of 50-70 year olds will this be?

If I toss some pics their way, the game will be over for all of you.
