Photographers’ Rights

Published by EOSSnapper under Photography

There has been a lot of talk in the Photographic Press recently about harrasment of photographers by the Police and other individuals purporting to uphold the laws of the land.

So what are our rights as photographers and what exactly can we photograph? I confess to being more than a little confused myself. Suffice to say, almost invariably we ARE allowed to take photographs! There is some very sound advice here www.sirimo.co.uk/ukpr.php from Simon Moran and Linda Macpherson. And for some specifics about taking photographs around UK rail stations checkout the British Transport Police’s guidance here www.btp.police.uk/railenthusiasts.html .

For details of your rights in the USA checkout this link http://photojojo.com/content/tips/legal-rights-of-photographers/. If you scroll to the bottom of that page there are further links to some guidance for photographers in Canada and Australia.

Making the Weight

Published by EOSSnapper under Exhibitions, Photography

Paul Alexander Knox (www.om-shantiphotography.co.uk) is having an exhibition at

The Decisive Moment Gallery, Blanche Pease Annexe, The Arts Centre, Vane Terrace, Darlington, DL3 7AX

from 29th March to 24th May 2008.

Its a quirky venue but having seen Paul’s previous work I’m sure that it will be well worth a visit. Good luck to him!

Welcome to Rob’s Blog

Published by EOSSnapper under Photography

I’d like to welcome you to my photography blog. I intend it to be a place where I can debate, inform and generally sound-off about photography and specifically stuff that interests me. While I am a practising professional I am still constantly learning, experimenting and exploring new avenues for work and pleasure.
