Here in Iceland the laws are similar to most of Northern Europe (I
think). In general, you can take pictures in public spaces wherever you
want, but displaying them is another matter. You'll need consent from
all people that are prominent in your photographs with few exceptions,
most notably

Thanks to all who responded so far.
Seems the idea was good.
I totally agree with Godfrey on the subject. Of course legal details
are country (or region in federal countries) specific but interesting
nonetheless.
It seems in Québec, street shooting is more or less dead unless you
ask the subject
15 Years ago I got the impression that the situation in France was
pretty much the same as that.

Although I haven't heard *too* much about restrictions here in
Wisconsin, I have a tendency to agree with John...There are a lot of
people who think they know the law and bellow about restricting where
you can take pictures and who you can photograph.
One thing I find ludicrous, though, is
ignorant officious assholes ... I like it! I'll write a macro for my
editor. ;-)
I remember the security guard at Museo de Orsay (forgive my spelling
...) in Paris telling me that I couldn't use my Leica. I then pulled
out my Minox C and asked if I could photograph them ... and they said
sure! So
It's a bit higher threshold for the shooter. Taking a photograph of a
legislator being a fool is easier on the photographer than filling one
full of lead, no matter how richly deserved.

One of the problems in Australia, and other countries with a Federal
system of government, is the conflict between state and
national(Commonwealth) laws.
So this applies particularly to Tasmania, an Australian state.

I believe that the general rule in the USA is that you can take a photo
in any public place of anyone but you cannot use an image of someone
commercially without their consent. You *can* use the photo for
journalistic, editorial or artistic purposes. Public BTW mean owned
by the government -
True enough, though theoretically public means owned by the public,
places actually owned by the government are different. A small but
important distinction.

Two small hopefully illustrative vignettes:
