What are our rights vis-a-vis shooting IN public, shooting "private" concerns from public spaces, NOT setting down a tripod and causing "obstruction" etc.
I was stopped by a cop in San Pedro Harbor as I "shouldn't be filming anything commercial" and I was shooting some ships coming in and some dockworkers through a crosswire fence. But where I was standing was public property. I gave my name and showed my Green Card but it later occurred to me that I didn't have to do this. Are there any good resources or guides to the current photographer's rights US-wide and in various states?
