Yesterday my daughter and I went up to Griffith park to shoots some pictures of her new outfit. We were planning on shooting by the observatory, but after walking half a mile from where we had to park we were stopped by a security guard that said we needed a film permit from the park office. This was just her and I, and all I had was my camera. We did look different, but why is looking out of place a justification for having to pay to do the same thing that all the other people are doing? Being Los Angeles everyone wants to get a slice of the entertainment industry, but I have no such budget, as the pictures are not being sold. We were not bothering anybody, obstructing anything, or causing any damage yet we could not shoot because we did not look like tourists. Does any government agency honor the bill of rights anymore?
Devious Journal Entry
GWCs (Guy With Camera) are amazing. There was a guy who posted some really snapshot grade nude photos. On camera flash, shadow on the wall, and flash fall off. I gave him a suggestion about the lighting, he responded by making an accusation about the lighting of one of my images. I responded with how the image was actually done. The guy says "Bullshit" and blocks me so I can't respond. I wasn't rude to him, just gave him a suggesting to use an off camera light source. Unfortunately it has become a feature of DA to compliment nude photos, simply because there is a naked girl in the image. The photo says nothing, the pose is awkward, compositio

Why nude?
A recent article about pinups had some statement that bothered me. It talked about pictures in the past objectifying women, and presented the idea that it was changing now due to there being more female photographers. I don't really think this is fair to either the photographers, or the models, present or past. Granted there have been those that sought to exploit women, but I am not convince that they were ever the majority. Throughout the history of photography, there have been the artists, those who who were learning about the art, and the women who posed for them, because they wanted to.
It is often asked why many photographers shoot nude
