I've been asked on a very few occasions not to take pictures, but always politely. (I *have* photographed an electrical plant, under construction, but that of course doesn't count since my client was the company doing the construction. I had a company-issued hard hat and an official escort.) ========== Yes, I should have said 100x. :-)
Cool, re electrical plant. There *is* a main electrical power station/plant near us, well, on the drive to San Jose that I am tempted to shoot. Very big, very interesting. Lots of structures, things sticking up in the air, abrupt angles, etc. Also, there is an oil refinery not that far from us that I have also been tempted to shoot (like the juxtaposition between some plants/flowers and the big oil drums). I probably will someday, but I'd be shooting through fences. At that time, I will report back if I get stopped by someone fearing I am a terrorist. I mean I can see why people would worry a man photographing children could be a pedophile (although not totally unknown, it is much, much less likely a woman would be), but surely a woman could be a terrorist too (much, much more likely)? Later, Marnie aka Doe ;-)
