[QUOTE="STM, post: 121318, member: 12827"] If you photograph someone in public, where they do not have an expectation of privacy then you are pretty safe. Now if you are going to [I]SELL[/I] the image, well now you are in a whole different arena and may need a model release. If the image could intrude on their privacy or could cause undue embarrassment, say, wind blowing up a woman's mini-skirt so you see that she is not wearing any panties and you have just caught an awesome shot of a [I]full moon[/I], or you caught someone up to their knuckle digging in their nose for [I]nose oysters,[/I] well then that could be a different situation. Now photojournalists have a different situation to worry about, especially if the photo is newsworthy and connected to a story and they need o get the subject's name. If you use a lens of longer focal length and shoot candids, they will probably be unaware of the photo anyway. Plus longer focal lengths have shorter depth of field which better isolates the subject anyway. But let your best judgement be your guide. If you are unsure, then go ahead and ask after you have taken the photo. With digital, you can actually show them the image. If they say no, talk to them about it and if they are still adamant about it, then delete the photo. Problem solved. Maybe this will answer a few questions of yours: [URL]http://www.socialbrite.org/2009/04/10/guide-to-shooting-photos-in-public/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
