Just this afternoon I wanted to take a few photos at the local railway station. I had no sooner lifted the camera to my eye when the station attendant appeared saying "You can't take photos here". I didn't push it because I was on railway property and maybe she was within her rights, but it's getting to the stage where people think that anyone carrying a 'real' camera is a terrorist or a child molester.
