RE: [Digital BW] Re:Be Careful Who You Photograph in National Parks

Echoing Clayton, sign your bloody post Stonieorl99. 

 

Two, you made a trip all the way to Utah from Florida suggesting that this
wasn't a quick impulse but rather a well planned trip. Checking with the
locals is always a good idea. A quick stop at the ranger's office before
hand or at the very least a call before you left Florida would take of that.
And while I am all for freedom, I don't think that just getting out of your
car at the crowded over look dropping your gown and snapping pictures is a
good thing to do. This may not have been what happened, but if a ranger was
close by, it suggests tat you were NOT in the back country or that far from
where families of many diverse beliefs may have been walking or enjoying
their park. 

 

Plan ahead and get naked : ) 

 

Eric

Dear,

Your post about shooting in the National Parks is disturbing, to say 
the least. It's
become an issue for a number of years now, but the lack of rules 
which allowed
the park ranger to make his own value judgement, based perhaps on his 
personal
religious or moral code is outrageous.

I strongly suggest, if you haven't already done so, that you contact 
ASMP, APA, and
PPof A with this information. They have been steadfast in fighting 
these types of
government abuses, which really are values that a few are trying to 
impose on the many!

And as an aside, it would be nice if you would sign your posts with 
your name. Nobody
likes responding to an email nom-de-plume . If this weren't such an 
important issue,
I would not have written back.

Sincerely,

Clay Price

A few weeks ago, I was issued a citation in a national park for
photographing a model without a permit.
The offense was "failure to obtain permit," 36 CFR 1.6(g)(1);
the citation did not mention the law or
regulation that actually required the permit. The citation imposed a
$150
fine, and required a mandatory court appearance. I might have
contested the
charge, but the court appearance would have been in Salt Lake City,
Utah,
and I live in Florida.......
