Photography is just a hobby for me.

However, there seems to be an exception for "legal official use, scientific use, artistic use and news reporting." I would say that many of us consider our street photography "artistic use" though I don't know if that had further definition through the Czech courts. That being said... since I live in the US, I never ask permission and I have never been confronted on this practice. Haha, perhaps it'll depend on how good your photo is

Persons of public interest are in an entirely different situation than the general public. My imagine composition sucks. I need a heavier lens.

Yeah, nice link and it doesn't mention anything about publishing, commercial or not. My imagine composition sucks. I need a heavier lens.

That's because moral is not definable without a specific individual in mind. What I believe is moral you may think is not. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

So many people are quick to jump to "That's wrong" or "That's unethical" or "You can't do that" - when their beliefs may be different than mine. Furthermore, many people ignorantly ASSUME that the laws must necessarily their particular set of "moral" or "ethical" beliefs. http://www.avidchick.com

That brings in a third variable. There is legal, those things we as a society have defined as common enough such that we will apply them to all whether you personally believe it or not. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

Nov 26, 2013 12:22 | #28 You post that somewhat in jest, but I think there was a thread about that not too long ago, actually. A guy was taking pics at the beach, some guys got suspicious and mad, and roughed up the photographer and his gear. http://www.avidchick.com

kf095 Out buying Wheaties ![]() More info | Nov 26, 2013 14:05 | #29 palad1n wrote in post #16478316 ![]() Hi, not that long ago, we had pretty harsh discussion at work about taking street photos of unknown people around us. Lots of people doesn´t like being photographed and one day finding themselves on flickr or FB. Here is my fresh example of publicly taken photo if you want to be perfectly street legal ![]() Untitled ![]() ![]() Not so long time ago wasn't it here as well? I'll try it with new approach. Forget the moral aspect for the moment. Look at stock photography for a sec. They are in trouble if something is wrong, legally. Say, you are submitting pictures with people where it is staged photo for vacuuming, for example. You must provide model release document from each acting, present person in the picture. Would stock take the picture from the street event, where it is impossible to ask written permission from everyone? The answer is - yes. Now, if stocks have no legal problems to use pictures like these, here is no problem with you to show pictures like these. Old Site

This topic comes up quite often and it normally takes a load of posts spouting misinformation before the truth arrives. But then, that's true of many topics on POTN. Some Canon stuff and a little bit of Yongnuo.
