Photography in public place and children.

I'd be less worried about the "public places issue" (which only applies to pro's and is more designed to protect people not wanting their photo's taken, ie: JK Rowling) and more worried about the "orphans" part of the bill which will allow all your shots not plastered with your contact details to be used without a licence effectively...

It is not illegal, though the media and the "Community Support Officers" are trying to make people believe that it is.

Even the fact that someone "Feels funny" about photographing children is a damning and sad indictment of just how broken this "society" of ours is.

I understand and feel for your dilemma, and am angry that this country should even allow it to exist, much less champion it on the news-stands. :(

You're quite right! My cousin was forbidden to take a photo of her own daughter at a public swimming pool! As soon as she took her camera out of her bag she was accosted by two members of staff. She said she felt like a criminal.
 
It's really weird that people are becoming so antagonstic about their picture being taken when we've got spy cameras all over the place! They don't seem to even notice that their real privacy is being invaded. I wonder how many of them will complain about the airport scanners...
