Well it's that time of year again, so a family trip to see the lights and the Glasgow public and visitors enjoy the festivities.
Sadly the local 'Security' decided I should not be taking photographs and albeit the gentleman was very polite - he persisted despite me explaining the law and my right to photograph in public places.
They kinda spoiled the night and the mood.
Why are these folks not briefed on the law - http://www.met.police.uk/about/photography.htm - it's easy enough to read and available at numerous locations on the web.
Quote - "Members of the public and the media do not need a permit to film or photograph in public places and police have no power to stop them filming or photographing incidents or police personnel."
