I think if you need a time out :thumbsup: ....and honestly quoting a website like photosecrets is hardly a reputable or even valid source of information.. especially law...Originally Posted by chaman
Why is it so hard to ask permission?...Well excuse me... Why is it so hard to ASK PERMISSION?because in some cases permission is not required.. it's as simple as that. Next time you go outside look into a store, any store, and find any book and open it, in fact find some postcards too. Or a newspaper. Look through the photos; do you think that the photographer went and took down the permission of every single person who appeared (even slightly) in those photos? No. Why? Because he/she doesn't *have to*.
but i'm not going to go into a pissing contest over who's right and who's wrong (ahem, you're wrong by the way ;) just to clear that up) quoting various silly blogs filled with unreferenced information .. the photo's subject matter is not the people - it is *the restaurant* and by canadian law anywhere is a public place unless labeled that it isn't. "no trespassing" "no public admission" "employees only" "do not enter"
A restaurant IS a public place, but like I said, I'm not going to continue this battle over urinals..
