Been some years since I've done some photography but now back again have been shooting today in the city wasn't long before I was told u can't shoot here u need permission..admittedly it was at the train station and I guess they have a valid reason now all these threats around the world.. but really they need too look hard at some people.. and say are they really going cause a problem I was a bit dishearten with it but it didn't stop me from shooting I move on. No such things as a free country anymore when they stop u from taking innocent photo.I'm glad I'm back it's been a fun morning shooting even with the interruptions.

[Welcome Back!] It's been awhile since I've been out and about with my camera. ...or without it for that matter. :( But I recall MANY discussions and reports about incidents of being questioned and told you can't shoot here, going back as far as at least 2004. Look in the forum archives, I think it's been far worse than it is now.

Here's something I did in 2010 in response to this issue that was being discussed at the time:

Not sure about where you're from, but where I live, window dressing doesn't grab your crotch or molest your grandma.
...oh, I see, you're from Florida. :P

It's only been two years since you entered some challenge entries here, yes? Not that much could have changed ... many rules / laws were put in place regarding photography restrictions after 9/11/2001 (that's 15 years ago).

Sad that it has to be that way, But I kind of understand it as well. You never know when someone is planning an attack, especially at a train station.
