In Oz unless otherwise sing posted all publicly accessible places are photo-zones however if you are advised by officials that manage the space that photography is not allowed (though not signposted) then it's advisable to stop taking shots. Officials can not demand the deletion of any shots that you made prior to the advisory either, though many think it's their right. -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
