agree on this one... :thumbsup:Don't shoot any kids, unless parents are paying you to do so.
Fyi, for stock photography, some agancies are very uptight about model release, if you can tell that is a person in the photo, even it is very small, can see face or not. will still ask you to get a model release.
It sad that today, we are all so suspicious of the intent of photography. Frankly, until now, I didn't understand what can be done to harm the child in the photo. You mean daily we saw child photos in newspaper whether as advertisement of some public events, they are all in danger?
Of course there is this thing call privacy. Whether you are an adult or child, you have your right. If you don't like to be photographed, politely tell the person to please delete it. As a photographer, I will not hesitate to do so. There are plenty of fishes in the ocean.
Go to a less developed country, they smile at you when you take a photo of them. Aren't we the same in the 50 & 60? Somehow we are thinking more than it should be.
I like children because they are so innocent. They did not pose for you just they natural reaction. Alas, the next best is insect. They never complain and their parent couldn't care either.
:bsmilie: but i still young and hansum leh. shoot kids people normally won't complain about me one.
Blame it on the Internet.... :think:
I think you misunderstand a statement of fact about the law with a defense of obnoxiousness. Read my prior post to the TS -- I do advocate consideration, even in the defense of established rights.
BTW, there will be those who 'cower' behind morality and moral rights too, assuming that their view is the be-all and end-all.
humble said:err... just to share wat my frd shared wif me over a kopi session.
1 of the topics was abt photo-taking: he told me if a stranger happened to take photos of his children, he'll ask the person to del the photo immediately as he isn't wary of the PG's intention. (is the PG pedo? is the PG fr a kidnap sync, doing labelling? or smth else.)
so if the parents ask PG to del photo, try explain 1st, if they don't accept the reasons, jus del, no pt getting angry over it.
Recently my camera on timer as I playing with time lapse. So, hardly anyone notice that I taking photos but they might includes in the photos if the camera happens to "Capture" them. I never been approach by any one, esp those bare back woman, haha! Btw, the invention of digital camera become a nuisance to a lot of people as every can afford a camera and click click.
i think the only nuisances are the people who ask me (or you for that matter) the following questions:
"hey! i see you have a DSLR. do you by any chance do freelance? how much? $150 for a whole day shoot?"
"hey! the company is having the D&D and we couldn't get an official photographer...."
"hey! the boss said he wants you to shoot blah blah blah event..." (this is definitely fake)
(while you're busy at work) "hey! i heard you've got a camera. so you know, what camera should i get.. i heard this brand that brand other brand yadda yadda yadda...." (for the next 1 hour)
:bsmilie:
During my recently TEAM BUILDING, I been asked thousands of times, where is your DSLR? Pls la, we go there for team building, not taking photos la. Furthermore, my gear so heavy, weather so hot, I not stupid to bring my gears for company event when the company treated me (Idk the rest) like shyt. Also if my gears lost during event, blame myself only. Most bring PnS and the one with DSLR, also lighter than mine a lot n he no brings tripod, haha!

Tell me about it..... I was in the same situation, except I brought mine along and this was what happened to the screen protector:
Can photographs be taken of policeman?
that is a good question,
may I know what is your purpose of taking photograph of policemen?
-40 points for amritsg for bumping up an old thread. :bsmilie:
Well purely from a street photographers perspective.
