I ask because for most street photography that I do I never ask and to think that when I finally do get over to Paris that I will now have to ask permission or even be faced with this task is daunting. I understand that the Province of Quebec has the same sort of law which has made me less enthusiastic about going there on a photo holiday. ernie - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of Daniel Ridings Sent: Tuesday, August 06, 2002 8:53 AM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] Steve Unsworth PAW week 31 Steve, They're nice. They remind me of an article in the Brittish magazine "Black and White" a few issues back. The theme article was about how it is illegal to take pictures of people on the streets in France without their explicit permission :) There was some kind of new law or something that just came into effect. Probably last summer. Daniel - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
