There is bias towards lanscape photography on this website. Well, the landscape is always there around you, be it country or urban landscape. To me, the urban landscape is the more interesting. However, both need some exploration and patience for the best result. So does street photography. jas

It starts at the top. The people who hire these security guys are frightened of come backs if it were proved that a security breach occurred and was directly attributed to a photograph taken. You may say "Fat chance" but its them who would take the can back.

Recently I was travelling to meet up with a friend, I had the camera bag (with new DSLR) in the boot of the car. As I was driving on the motorway I came across a very recent (less than two minutes) accident. I stopped to offer help to both drivers. While I was there I offered to take shots of the incident, no injuries just shocked drivers and passengers, both drivers accepted my offer. I had s...

I've had a few experiences of being asked to stop taking photos because I was using what looks like professional equipment, or a tripod and I have to say that for the most part the people who spoke to me were polite buy my experience yesterday makes me wonder how far the paranoia associated with photographers will go. It was a great day, sun shining and low in the sky so I set off to the loc...

Apparently being a hairy hippy is provocation to the police

On the original subject, this is something we've seen in recent years at the Edinburgh Festival, and it's happened to me too. The "statues" guys are trying to make an honest (?) bob, and many object to being used as models for no return, and many don't get approached by the public if they are being stalked by a photographer. I've only ever had one guy give me the "finger wag" treatment, but ...

I think more of us women should go for martial arts training. Karate etc. This is supposed to be good for defending oneself, thats if you get the chance.

LOL ...

I really cant finish Brave New World, im at the reservation bit again with John's weird introduction, the bit what disinterested me in the first place. Have several books waiting in the wings, Bradshaws Guide, which was recently popularised by Michael Portillo on the bbc, and its an identical reprint of the original, even down to the binding and text layout. Beautiful by Katie Piper, the...

I have posted my first shot, and in spite of Boyd's Scandalous suggestion, it's categorically not SuziBlue... It's also not the sort of image I'd have expected to take before going out to Paris but I was very struck by the level of homelessness (and the number of tents!) in Paris. It's a shame about SuziBlue's phone problems but, hey, I had a fun weekend in spite of the difficulty of meeti...

err, there's no 'V' in the Welsh alphabet. F and FF, but no V. Surely, it should be Ifan I think you're confusing Welsh with the Welsh language :) Ceri

And that's why bronica with polaroid back can be useful;-) or digital...

I have decided to go for another property now. It is quite a bit more expensive but is in a good location and it has 9ft high ceilings. Lucian It would seem that Lucian has taken on board at least one piece of the the advice given i.e. a larger property would be needed to house his backdrops etc. Presumably during the "It's suddenly gone quiet" period Lucian had been busy searching fo...

No hot juicy gossip :( Ah well, back to peeping through the curtains at the goings-on at No.42B then.

I must admit to having little interest in current camera club vogue here in South Bucks for street scenes and high key almost at the detriment of any other subject; luckily today's whims and fads will fall to the bottom of the pile to be followed by another fashion; the danger with the camera club mentality is that like begats like and some but not all members end up imititaing each other endea...
