#5327402 Know Your Rights: Photography In Public
Posted

Many malls and other public places are restricting photography where they haven't before. Anywhere children play can be a minefield.
And there's the related subject of what you do with the picture. It might be legal to take the image, but that same image could get you sued if you tried to publish it, or publish it in a certain venue, or if for profit, or maliciously... it's getting very complicated and it's a subject which is constantly evolving.
In Thailand.. wow.. so many changes. You really need to pay attention to the reactions of people around you when you point your camera, many are becoming very hostile and/or suspicious towards anyone with a camera. Especially foriengers.
I've developed methods I'll deploy depending on the circumstances, and these methods have turned into a small bag of tricks depending..
If in doubt ask, but unless you're asking a lawyer who is experienced with the subject and keeps current you're taking your chances. And of course you'll always get 4-5 different people who disagree with any given take..

But has Thailand enacted similar laws to the 7th amendment pertaining to photography?
I for one hate the paparazzi following me

Do you see the box beside other people's posts?
Yes, I do. For instance, it appears beside your post #4 above, but not beside my post #3 above yours. It also appears on Thaddeus's #3. It's terrible to feel so left out.......
Its perfectly normal. I don't see a like box beside my post either. This is to prevent you giving yourself likes.

If so, they have never had that option on them, you can't 'Like' your own posts.

where is Nong Nooch ?
It's the tourist gardens about 30 mins drive outside Pattaya.
http://www.nongnooch...icalgarden.com/ When I click the English version, I keep getting the 'Flash Error', don't know why.
Personally I reckon it's a great place. Mainly because of the variety of views, contrasting forms and shapes.
Has a cultural show, elephant show and the famous gardens portrayed above ... and I agree with all the posters above Photo #2 has something about it.
A little something for everyone ... even a happy snapper like me ...
EDIT:- OK ... I couldn't resist ...

Anything concerning the OP spending any money in Thailand will be met with the usual comments about how stupid he is and he'll lose the lot etc etc etc.
Anything about Thai people will be met with the usual anti Thai negative posts etc etc.
I understand why they don't come back, hardly surprising to me.
Yes....quite the civilised and pleasant place to hang one's hat.
Jeff - latching on to a thread that is over a year and half old is odd - even for you

Oops. Didn't realise I could change.
Will now consider my option.

I have always appreciated your photos and the time that you have taken to upload them.
If I haven't said it
THANK YOU for showing us parts of Thailand that we probably would never see.
This is not a nasty post - just one that I should have said years ago.

Happens all the time, Kan... even in real life. I've found expensive items (fly boxes, knives, fishing tackle, and once a camera etc) along the river and I've taken the time to post it on a forum. Then, when I DO find the owner and mail it to him at my own expense, I don't get the courtesy of a simple thank you.
I just chalk it up to bad manners, but it doesn't stop me from helping others. I'd rather make one person's day than worry too much about all the uncouth boors.
