In the end, that's what it's all about - motives. Why are you shooting
what you shoot? is it to make some money, or is it because you enjoy the
activity? You and I know the answer to that - now you have to convince
the people who are able to decide if you will or you won't be able to do
it.
It's also about future motives.
A person may have very good intentions, get an absolutely wonderful image,
and find himself tempted to sell it for a poster or some such, without the
subject's permission.
Artists tend to be careful of such things, and I am sure venue managers have
to be equally paranoid.
I am sure there is also an element of small minded authority happenning as
well.
