hello all, i'm still very inexperienced when it comes to photography and had a question in regard to do's and don't's. i'm not exactly sure how to phrase this so bare with me. i'm just trying to get an idea of what's acceptable to capture and what's not, i'm not talking about any sick or twisted things but normal everyday stuff. i've already been harassed for taking pics of a bridge and i'm trying to find out if there are any other things that might bring about the same treatment. one for instance is pedestrians, i'd like to get down town and shoot some pics of the city streets (as some are very picturesque) but i'm not sure if it's ok to get people in the shot or not. i'm sorry if this question seems odd or just plain stupid but as i'm learning everything on my own i want to make sure i keep out of trouble and i figured who better to ask then those who've been practicing photography for a while. thank you in advance for you time and assistance!!! eb
