Hi all,
I haven’t been able to post until today so these remarks are a little behind everyone elses on the subject. The forum site seemed to be down when I’ve tried and my digest was totally up the wall. All messages were repeated umpteen times…
Do you really need to hear all this :-
To the point, I’ve always thought that candid photography was by definition without the subjects consent, indeed if you get that first then it can’t be candid anymore.
I was inspired to look up the law and ethics on this and turned up an interesting document. It is something of a can of worms but basically it boils down to "if a reasonable person couldn’t be very offended by publication" and as long as you will not profit from it then it’s ok in public places.
The url is below, there’s a pretty good summary at the end of it. < http://commfaculty.fullerton.edu/lester/writings/chapter5.ht ml>
I may well miss the challenge 17 as I would have to go some distance to get anywhere suitable, ho hum, we’ll see.
