All shot with very telephoto lenses to enhance the effect they went out looking for.

Exactly. Also, there's the whole point of "people out and about complaining about how there are loads of other people out and about."

If an individual is worried about contracting Covid-19 while outdoors, the answer is simple: don't go out.

The media has run out of empty shelves to photograph to hype their online clicks / advertising prices so are finding new things to wind people up about.

Problem is some of those photos show people side on - and are far too close. Looking at the width of rear number plates and the dotted lines marking parking area - ( which are 'foreshortened ' in the same way as the gaps between bikes and people would be ) everything is far too close.

Saw a video of Matlock Bath on the twitters, half of it was coned off and the bikes were basically parked peg to peg.
