OK , should of known better after watching this documentary about skid row. watched it on netflick's a month or two back.. anyway this really happened to me yesterday. was killing some time in a park in the valley (sun valley) park i believe . And was starting to get bored . So i thought i would make a tweet . about the location and what i am doing (my twitter addiction that by the way is getting waaaay out of control).So i take a picture of the park which inadvertently had some homeless folks in it. Sure enough after taking my picture (although i was like 50-75 feet away from them) A young homeless man confronted me about the picture i took. I explained to him i wasn't taken a picture of him , but of the park.. He muttered something like you yuppie people are crazy(I am far from a yuppie, but to him i guess i was).Anyway kind of ruined the park for me.. (which actually was kind of ruined by the overwhelming homeless folks that congregate their anyway). so i left. Just don't understand, i mean they are homeless and one thing i read about was the lack of privacy homeless folks already have.. guess the point of this little blog today.. just kind of got irritated on not being to take a picture in a public park. not really sure if i meant to take a picture of them, or was really just taking a picture of the park.But beware of what you shoot i guess is the point of this blog . In the documentary the same thing happened to the folks taken pics of skid row they were also confronted..
So think before you shoot.. i guess ....
