A few years I was attending a trade show in New Orleans. Walking down Bourbon St., I came up to a unique building. I took out my camera to take a photo and a fellow photographer stopped me, grabbed my camera, and told me to jump in front of the building. I turned around, smiled, and then before I knew what happened, I was on the ground with a cop yelling in my face.
He claimed he thought I was going for his partner’s gun (HA), and made me delete the photos taken. I wish I would have known my rights. I suggest printing this document out and putting it in your camera bag. Read it a few times.
