NYC has rules now that you can't photograph from a bridge. However,
there are no rules saying you can't photograph the bridge itself. I took
this just off the Belt Parkway tonight, and fought off a rat between my
tripod and my car door on the way back!

I like the first one. Not a rat in sight.

I agree. I have some great photos of that bridge in daylight from a
small plane, but they are on 35mm prints.

I find it hard to imagine that anyone in any field of security could dupe
themselves into believing that preventing people from taking pictures *from*
a bridge can somehow prevent an attack by terrorists. If they are, then we
(the USA) have employed the biggest pack of morons on the planet in our
security and intelligence industry.


They will stop you or follow you if you carry professional gear but if
you use a P&S they ignore you. Do you suppose the bad guys don't know
this? Do you suppose they would use a Canon 1D Mark II or would they
use a P&S?

They are spending so much time and money on things that don't improve
security that we are less secure because of it!

Mind you, I fully expect the bad guys to be using cameras, mostly
digital, to scout locations and nothing the security folks have been
doing will stop that. We need a different approach to the protection
of high valued assets...
