Honestly, in both these videos you look _way the fuck_ sketchier when you drop the camera and walk away than if you'd tried to be stealthy.

"it's perfectly legal in public space"

The eternal cry of the most anally retentive photographer. This man treats the people he photographs (and they are people) as objects, not subjects, who exist only so he can bestow them with his gaze. A really creepy person.

@retchen

Or the eternal cry of the photographer who knows his rights and doesn't let you or others shame him into not taking a good shot.

@nickvkn

That's not it either. You can sell the shot and make a profit...and that's legal.

The only restriction is that you don't use the image to advertise a product.

@rpavich

Only if you make profit. Then a gain that's hard to prove.

Einfach nur geil wie die reagieren xD muss ich testen und auch aufnehmen lassen ! Aber tolle Fotos können dadurch entstehen. Sehr schön =D

Not in America, you can't.

[photoyamamoto]

just because you take a photo in the street and convert it to black and white dose not make you a street photographer.

you haven't captured anything special about this man or any candid moment

just another kid with a camera calling yourself a street photographer polluting this world with poor images.

And to be told you can be sued for this

1 dislike and it's from me. I am reading your ebook and have just viewed your two tutorial and i don't like your way of approaching people. It's creepy.

[gobeco]

Thomas I must admit that you do make some nice photos but here in North America quick shot candids as you do could have your nose broken along with your camera.. nice work just keep your running shoes on!
