I have read a few threads here that talk about respect and manners with taking pictures in public of people and events.
Am I legally allowed to take pictures of anything or anyone in public? If I can see it with my eyes, what is the issue?
I can understand that some may think it is creepy to be taking pictures of a park full of kids, but kids playing is a beautiful thing.
I have had someone come up to me at a community event and ask me to put my camera away.
I responded respectfully back, informing them I am a part of this community and my pictures are not for commercial use.
They left me alone when they found out my wife was putting on the event, but what rights do they have?
When someone comes up to my kids and wants to take a picture, they are all in with some funny faces, or creative poses.
This does not bother me at all.
Sometimes I think people watch way to much crime TV where the weirdo always has a camera.
Finally, do I have the right to tell someone to beat it if they want me to delete a picture?
I am not worried about someone getting violent with me as it is not a choice people are likely to make with me, but legally speaking, can I just move on with no legal backlash?
