Somewhere there exists a pic of my now 19 year old daughter fully naked except for a Russian fur hat that I got in Germany. She was being kooky and her mother snapped a pic.
Since we are now divorced, maybe I should inform the authorities.

Just don’t take them into a public toilet or you might happen find George Michael on a date.
This is the U.K. , isn’t everybody constantly photographed/video recorded there?
Too bad he didn’t take a picture of the dirty minded old bag that accused him and given it to one of the tabloids.
But if you’re a swarthy 23 yo male taking pictures of a bridge or a stadium you’re assumed to be A-okay-—or else.
Yes it can...but this story is ridiculous!

Well, at least the world is being made a safer place for neurotic feminists with daddy issues. ;)
I am an amateur photographer and frequently have my camera with me. I am always concerned when I take a shot with strangers in it, especially if there are kids around. I’m afraid people will think I’m trying to take shots of their kids. It would have never occurred to me that I might have an issue taking pictures of kids I knew!

This is one sign of a society whose citizens have lost faith in the ability of the society to protect them from crime.
I am a big photography enthusiast and i’ve heard a lot of complaints from british photogs about the trouble they get in shooting in public overthere. Its not a nice environment to be a shutterbug or so i’m told.
Those folks who see perversion in everything are probably a little twisted themselves.
I wonder if there’s not more to this story than first appears. First, it sounds as though the guy was holding up the line to the inflatable slide so he could take his pictures. I suspect that’s why the slide operator asked him to put the camera away and why the parents with kids waiting in line seconded the motion. Wouldn’t surprise me if he got snippy with her (and she might have been snippy with him in the first place) and then things escalated to where one exasperated parent said something stupid like “For all we know, you are taking their pictures and maybe pictures of our kids for posting on the internet.” It could just as easily be a typical dispute among parents of hot kids waiting in their swimsuits to take the slide while this guy held up the line to get his pictures. And the way this guy is whining, he sounds like he just might be a jerk. Just my theory.
I took these this morning on my walk - I had my eye on those two chicks at the back doing the cycling bit. :)
Great Britain is FUBAR.
