Dear All,
I am curious to find out your opinions on DP and photographs.
John Hitches sent a very useful email to the list in October on this topic
which said (more or less) that photos of specific individuals should have
written consent, organised or targetted group photos such as of a class
should have verbal consent, and the individuals be given an opportunity to
leave, and for general shots, no specific action was needed.
But what about shots of audiences at public lectures. The date, place and
time is known but the audience could be anyone. It seems as if such
examples are half way between the second and third scenarios above.
And also what is the list's thinking on details of large general shots of,
say a street scene, where the image of one individual is isolated and blown
up so that a separate photograph of one individual is made. Would that need
written consent as it is of one individual or no consent as it is general
and of an anonymous person who could have been anyone?
Many thanks for your help.
Matthew Stephenson
