Another Photographer accused of being a paedophile.

Shame, but I think he wanted his minute in the limelight as 'The victim'

I don't think so...especially when he went to such lengths as reported in the article. Inviting the police to examine your computer is not a "limelight" seeker does imho.

"It has left him so shook up and desperate to clear his name he later called police and asked them to come over to review everything on his computer."

Where I live, in Virginia,USA, something similar happened to me. It was evening on Sunday after most of the shops closed on a little street. It was pleasant weather and I was strolling down the street relaxing smoking a cigar. I went up to the shop windows here and there just to look at the display items they were selling. All of a sudden two police cars rush down the street stop near me and police from both cars approach me from opposite sides (in case I ran I guess). There had been a report that a "suspicious" person was potentially casing stores to rob them. My record is squeaky clean having been in the military and holding several security clearances, so I laughed when they told me that and handed them my ID and told them while you look me up I will be looking in the window of that art store at the paintings. They did their background check, then apologized to me for disturbing my walk.

Or PHOTOGRAPHING!

he was videoing with a go pro and a video camera

OP might want to rethink the way he does his subject lines. :)

Well, whether you agree with it or not, videography is also classed as photography.

Emotions do not come into play here but scientifically there are parallels to this proposition but one medium records moving images, the other records still images. One device could be used to record either medium (not at the same time) but they are different by definition. [emoji440]

A video is a series of photographs...duh. lol
 
A video is a series of photographs...duh. lol

But a photograph is viewed as a single image and a video is moved as a motion picture. As I said there are parallels but they are two distinct disciplines.

I'm not inclined to put to much academic weight into Wikipedia but it's late:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photography

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Videography

I'm more than happy to be proved wrong but give me some academic resource to support the inference that photography and videography are not two different disciplines but are one of the same.

Don't just say "duh" because that's child speak and gives absolutely no credibility to the author. It's pointless if you want to be taken seriously.

The images in a video do not move, they are still images, the movement is an illusion, one you fell for evidently.... lol

You don't like duh? well then derp.

If you string together a lot of stills, you made a video, if you take one frame from a video, you have a photograph.
Now you see the obvious truth.

Derp - that's just gobbledygook or gibberish. Clearly, you're not from England are you ?

Yes, I understand the concept of a moving stills. The magic lantern; Muybridge, Lumière and video. These are not lost on me that's just secondary school basics.

But that does not prove that photography and videography are one of the same. They are completely different disciplines.
 
Oh, righto, you Brits say brilliant things like Ni! Very high brow indeed. lol
Try not to take yourself so seriously there, pal, you'll live longer.
No, I am not from England, thankfully my forefathers escaped that tyranny a long time ago, I am from the really big country to the west a bit, where you can fit 5 Englands into one state here (Texas), and we have 50 of them.

So, when I edit video, I edit one frame at a time and do it multiple times, when I edit a photo, I edit one frame at a time and do it one time....huge difference there...not.

Actually, no, it was not to you. Nice punctuation and capitalization btw. :)

He did this just as soon as he had cleaned out all the child porn, no doubt!

Why are you mad? It's the internet, lighten up, bro.

Not so tasteful as humor on a forum imho. But c'est la vie. FWIW, your activity on the internet is not really something you can "clean out". Sites you visit are stored many places, including on the servers of your service provider, and at hop points along the way for a period of time. Just part of the way the system works. Plus some service providers keep it for their own "business" purposes. And I suppose the NSA probably has it as well :LOL:

Good! He deserves to pay the ultimate price then and likely will in fact.
 
......and we have 50 of them.

Then there is Rhode Island, which you could fully carpet for around $9.99.
Given your location, you are not even remotely close to having escaped tyranny.

Lmao We are well beyond the reach of the realm here.

Yeah the first 13 states started off as colonies and as such were set up with a British eye to where to place borders, I admit they did a poor job of it. So we have RI.

He could also have materials and not even be on the internet or have a connection to it. Could be local files.

Wooosh!
 
You can imagine the conversation between Mr Beard and the reporter.

Reporter: So as a result of this do you fear for your own safety?

Mr Beard (who hadn't thought of this before) : Er....well....yes, I suppose I do.....

Instant story!

Indeed - its not like the average journo to let the truth stand in the way of a good story - and IME its often the case that the more insignificant the title they work for the more inclined they are to make s*** up

You're American? Aww that's nice. Coincidentally, our history is similar to yours, only 50 times bigger. :)
 
We also have the wonderful words "septic" and "tank" which we sometimes put together to form an accurate description.
 
There are lots more silly words the British use too.
Another classic word we mods have, is perma ban.
It means bye bye in plain English :thumbs:
 
He was probably a Trump supporter :)

There's not really much to say about the 'story'. Nothing really happened of any consequence.
 
I did wonder if it was Richard who was kicked off a couple off weeks ago come back as a different profile !

Or he could not. Or you could. Or you could not. Or a unicorn could be involved...maybe Bigfoot! All unfounded conjectures...or in other words, senseless gossip. Unfounded. Meaningless. A waste of time. Childishly irresponsible, not humorous. I think this has run its course for me. :cool:

Unfortunately, paedophile photographers do exist, as the story I saw earlier (via Sky News IIRC) shows. Just as paedophile parents exist etc..
 
Common law, which has no basis in legislation, is best left dying.
If we allow the courts and judges themselves to make the "laws" we're all doomed :LOL:

So we should let murder go? Murder is not on the statute books, it comes under Common Law.

In the City of York it is still legal to murder a Scotsman within our ancient city walls, but only if he is carrying a bow and arrow. This has never been revoked.
