Photographers are under assault like never before.

Incredibly, in the United States of America, it is illegal in some areas to use a camera without a permit. Why?

Recently, a friend told me about his friend who had the opportunity to spend the night in jail for being a “professional” photographer (since he had a nice camera) and taking pictures in a park without a permit.

Ridiculous and unacceptable. It’s amazing this occurs in the USA.

So much for the land of the free and the home of the brave.
