I am now buying them from Deposit Photos for future articles. Unsplash (certainly at the time of writing that piece) had nothing at all. Even so Deposit is very shy on super hot, powerful women of an age, and finding royalty free shots of older chicks who do what I do? What. A. Joke. People who photograph older folks are themselves beset with prejudice and preconceived notions. To wit: one day I was out running stairs at Red rocks… thousands of them, thank you…along with plenty of folks much older than I was. There were photographers there for a professional shoot…of some twenty something chick doing a fraction of what we were doing. Look, it’s our society, and I understand. But when I buy photos off Deposit there isn’t a single shot of old broads like me pushing Very Serious Iron. But we sure as shit do. And run ultra marathon races. And and and. I will be long dead and buried before that changes.
