[QUOTE="search231GT, post: 258888, member: 15314"] Hello, So I'm really new to car photography and I need some help. I run a car blog and I take pics for this other automotive site(internship). The first time I officially did some legit car photography was at the LA auto show last year. It was a lot of fun for me. But I can't always go to car shows. True car culture exists on the streets and car meets, and that's what I am going to get into. Before I continue please excuse me if I sound like a noob, I'm learning. I want to learn the proper etiquette for shooting cars publicly. I want to post these pics on my blog and build up my portfolio. My Big question has to do with the license plate. Because I plan on posting these pics on my blog, do I need to blur out or cover the license plate? And in case anyone is wondering, I don't make any money at all from this, it's my hobby. I also don't want anyone chasing me down because their info is on the web. Of course I can always shoot in a way where the plates don't come up, but I just wanted to know. Secondly, am I always going to need the permission of the owner to take pics if I'm out in public? From what I've seen, cars are free game to car photographers. But again, I just want to make sure I'm doing this right. That's all I can think of for now. If there is anything else you think I should need to know, please share, I would much appreciate it. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
