If I take pictures of people in public, all they can do is give me nasty looks or comments (well, I guess they could attack me and break my camera, but nobody has even come close to that). <BR/><BR/>If a city council here tried to prohibit photogs from practicing their art in public places, they (the council) would be facing some serious Constitutional Rights lawsuits (and they'd be facing them from the losing end, with probable damage awards), never mind being voted out of office. <BR/><BR/>I can understand that sort of thing happening in Belarus and such places, but in the most civilized of countries like Britain? Even with your residual Monarchy, I am flabbergasted. Particularly considering the gazillion government surveillance cameras programs... talk about double standards. No wonder we revolted!<BR/><BR/>-Captain BenCapt.

Sometimes I feel funny about taking photos of people and sometimes I feel brazen. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Most of the time, I try to take interesting people photos without showing faces.<BR/><BR/>You know, I wanted to take photos of the daughter of a female police officer (the little girl was so cute) and asked, knowing her police officer mother might say no. I promised I wouldn't show her face. The police officer just laughed and said she had no problem with me taking a photo of her face. I was totally surprised.<BR/><BR/>I do feel people attending public events should lighten up.EG CameraGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12803759124643467711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600056022316943149.post-35261963046745779512008-08-21T22:11:00.000+01:002008-08-21T22:11:00.000+01:00I looked but no I don't know them.

I have the same problem here. As of yet, I think I have posted only one photo of a human on my photoblog.
