You should spend some time in Vancouver BC.

Frankly, when the Chinese invasion ot the USA happens I think it will happen from the North.

I am all for Richmond moving to the US.

so is that what you think of when you do street photography? I like beautiful Asian, fashion and photography. But I would never break any Anti-Voyeurism Law here in Australia.

Admittedly it's not a law*, but when you make someone the subject of your photo rather than them just incidentally being in the picture you're taking of something else then I would expect to be asked and otherwise would put up a stink.  I don't care what things you like to look at or take pictures of, but if it turns out that I'm one of those things then you had better ask politely.

US/Canada/Uk/Australia have very similar laws.

Your permission is not required. You have no right not to be photographed in a public place because you have no right to privacy in a public place. If I can see you, I can take a picture of you. If you want privacy, then stay at home. If I want to photograph you, I will and I don't give a rat's ass who you are or how you feel. You can not force to delete the photo because it is my property. If you touch me or my camera, that's an assault.

When the police came, I explained that I'm a street photographer taking pictures in a public place. The police was on my side, hence why I was able to keep the photo. People think their permission is needed, legally no, socially well I don't give a **** because I don't even know you.

Of course I'm not, but I have the balls to do what he does. He's been called names like loser, pedo, D-bag etc. If he cared about other's feeling, he would never have gotten those shots. I agree with his philosophy, get the shots and don't sympathise. The same concept also exists in most areas of life, like if I am empathic with people, I probably would never make any money off my clients. Lawyers face the same issue and many other industry and businesses. Photography is no different, except the reward is not money but shots (for me anyway, I am no pro), which I guess why most people find it hard to accept.

It's socially acceptable to be a **** to make money but not acceptable for artistic purposes.

Don't see why you guys are so soft on the issue.

that's much better actually...  if i could offer some criticism it'd be that your earlier photos don't really capture a moment or emotion...the first few pics that you opened with seem like you just walk up to girls and snap a picture w/o much thought...not that interesting

if you want some better feedback id recommend moving this type of discussion to a photography forum...doesn't seem like we "get it"
