Photography

Ok, picture it, I had a few minutes to spare, so I thought I would whip my camera out and take a couple shots of the passing buses as you do, when I was approached by some busy body saying that it was against the law to take pictures in a public, place and that I should ask permission from the driver and all of the passengers on board, a hard thing to do when the vehicle is moving at 20mph.
I was then informed that it was invasion of privacy, or some other made up law, thought up by the press, to cause mass hysteria, even though they photograph people themselves.

So i asked him to tell me the exact statute in the law, the said person could not answer my question, so I asked him to go away.

So as a result, I am NOT giving up transport photography, which is a harmless pastime I have done for the last 16 years, half my life,. It goes to prove in the the blogg I wrote a couple of nights ago, that a lot of harm has been done in the last few years and that things have not changed fo the better.

So the history books in the future will be lacking in pictures, if the hysteria spreading mass media, that happen to be controlled by global meglomaniacs have their way. Anyway I'm going to Duxford soon to take some pictures, while I am still allowed to.
