Jem...

We agree on the permission issue.  ;-)

I try my best to adhere to the Golden Rule and usually avoid shooting around
strangers in the first place, because one never knows how they will react.
And, no, I would not have done the "health club" stunt, and thought they
were crass when I heard of them.

Good shooting!

Mitch,
Thanks for the great big grin!
I guess that's the difference between talking in person and corresponding 
through a time line. In an instant you'd have set me straight on your 
actions and we'd have gone off on a different topic.

Just because work is critically acclaimed doesn't justify the means of 
acquiring it.

A few years back, some photographer persuaded the health club where 
Princess Diana trained to install 2 way mirrors so he could shoot some pix 
of her working out. The photos were applauded by other photographers who 
could appreciate the ingenuity to achieve the result and could have wished 
to have thought of it first, and by the public who bought the papers in 
their millions with the pictures in, but would you want to have done that?

But the topic was hot fun while it lasted.
