That's interesting, since in June of this year I was at the Museum of London and took many pictures while there and no one said anything. I don't know that there was a change in policy or they were being lax in enforcing it. I certainly wasn't hiding that I was taking photos. alex

This is a fairly new policy that had been instituted while they were doing all that work in the museum a year or two ago. One of the curators told me their main reason was to gain copyright control over the spread of the images and the quality of the images being passed around. Too many people were taking pictures on their trips there and slapping them on their websites, or even publishing them, without consulting the museum so to put a stop to this, they stopped allowing general photography.
