Hannover impressions AND challenge57:

In fact I'm not very good in CCTV, because what I've seen is that most people notice when you're making pictures of them. If you really want to do some "detective pictures" when you observing someone I found out 4 rules:

1. It's always good to stay above those ones you observe. Only few people look up and mostly only if there's some noise over their heads.
2. If there's some object making noise like this starting train, lots of people are focused on the louder thing.
3. If you put your camera onto some big object, everyone will think you're making pictures of that biggie stuff, they don't notice that they are on camera too.
4. And best of all is: put it all together. :)))

BTW, I don't like this Orwell world. I think that the state has no right to observe everyone just because politicians think that all citizans should be under suspect. That's what dictator states are doing, not democratic ones. We all should carry masks these days, put metal shields around our talking-chips-ID-cards and shouldn't trust politicians who always try to remove civil rights no matter if there's some danger or not. In my opinion those todays terror guys go hand in hand with our own politic guys, they share the same goal: non-free societies.

Well said.
But saying that, I suppose it's hard to take any photo with out invading someones civil liberties, all of us somewhere are on someone elses photos, home movies, cctv, etc.......

Cool photo by the way ;)

Yes, but normally there's no database where every move you've ever made has been recorded. I'm not speaking about being on someones privates photos, I don't care. Otherwise I wouldn't do a blog or put some of my own pics in the net. I just don't like those huge data collections which are saying who farted in what second at which place.

Thanx losp, I hope that we're more people who want a free world than those ones who always want to have suspicion.
