RE: Things you can't take pictures of in public

[Blanchard_Michael () emc com]

And yet, you can go to the beach, on a hot summer day, with your video camera and film all the people on the beach that 
you want.... With only the fear of a BIG boyfriend beating the snot outta you for filming his girlfriend sun-bathing :-)

  the way I look at it, if it's in public, it's fair game for ANY picturetaking or filming.  If something shouldn't be 
filmed or snapshotted, then it shouldn't be in plain public view....

Here are some more things that will get you in trouble if you try to take
pictures of them:

   - Surveillance cameras
   - Cops
   - Your neighbor's windows
   - Passport checking stations (I learned this one the hard way)
   - Boston subway trains

Bottom line, just because something is public, it doesn't mean that you can
take its pictures.  Social conventions, regulations, and laws control where
cameras can be used in public.
