I'm not trying to be facetious, however I have a physical dissability that hinders somewhat my mobility, and I've found numerous up-and comming young people with an interest in photography who are more that willing to go along with me to be sort of a "gun bearer". It works out great for me, and for them. Try it sometimes, it works!!!
