New Site: PhotoPermit.Org - The Right to Photograph

[bjorke]

A new site has opened on the topic of the civil rights of photographers -- specifically

their right to make photographs! This right has been increasingly hemmed-in over

recent years by over-zealous parents, swaggering security guards, and untrained or

unconstrained civil authorities. The new site is designed as a forum, clearinghouse,

and resource to help photographers and the public understand and protect their

rights. Pro journalists has their agencies and editors to help guard their right to work

-- artists and amateurs also need a voice. <a href="http://www.photopermit.org/

">PhotoPermit.Org</a> is intended to provide them with the resources and ideas

that they need.
