I also thought that I had better ask the parents there if it was OK. The first one I asked threatened to call the police if I did not leave the park immediately. She even called me a pedophile. And soon another woman joined in on her side. I did not take any photos and I left. This was in Florida. USA. If I had taken photos against their wishes would I have been breaking the law? It was a public park. I recently made a section on my website for photos of children and I thought it a good idea to go to a local park and shoot photos of the children plating there.

Your story of losing and then finding back my post is just too funny! It gave me a good laugh haha! It's weird that dSLRs make us better targets for people since they think the photos we take are more dangerous than the usual digital cameras, haha! Don't be afraid of shooting Aisyah! Your phography skills are really improving very quickly, and it is especially evident in your <a href="http://aisyahrozi.com/artworks/shoot-shoot-bang-bang-with-azima/" title="Shoot Shoot Bang Bang with Azima" rel="nofollow">Shoot Shoot Bang Bang with Azima</a> post, heheh!

I feel that it's my responsibility to share this information since I'm a photographer myself, and has experienced a fair bit of the infringement of my rights. The two security guards are definitely WRONG to (1) threaten the photographer - that's tantamount to harrassment and coercion (2) request photos to be deleted because it's a PRIVATE property. If they really want him to delete them, get a court order first :razz: heheh! Thanks for the compliments!

You don't have to ask for anyone's permission, as along as you're shooting in a public place. However, always use good judgement. The best thing (and the most ethical thing) to do when witnessing an accident or a mishap is to offer help to those who are injured or need urgent medical attention. Usually temper flares when photographers approach victims because they should be offering help instead of snapping away. Nope, not at all.

I find it absurd to restrict photography in shopping malls because it's an area accessible to members of a public. I understand that it's on private property, but if they allow public access, they should be prepared to allow photography of any kind. Guards usually do not care much about people snapping using phones... they are usually more concerned those who're carrying big bulky dSLRs. I hated that kind of discrimination - it's the same thing over in my country. For some reason people think photographers using dSLRs are more dangerous than those using consumer-grade ones or mobile phones. Weird. You’re right.
