Can you photograph anything you want?

I think that you can photograph anything you want. But the person that you photograph must agree that it´s okay. Like if I should photograph on a summer vacation at the beach, then it is not okay to photograph a half naked woman that you do not know. In that case it is not okay to photograph a human who does not want to be photographed. And if I am walking on the street and see a poor sick man, sitting and begging for money, I do not photograph him just for fun.

Situation and places that you cannot photograph

· When somebody is not dressed, at the beach or in a locker room. That could be personal and if you photograph it could be like that the human is feeling offended or used, maybe the person believes that you are going to put the photo on the internet.

· If somebody is hurted for example if a man has been hit by a car. Then is not okay to photograph.

· People who are angry or sad do not want anybody to stand in their face with a camera and photograph.

· Theatres and cinemas and arts do not allow during a performance, because they have copyright on their own work. For example you cannot put any film at YouTube without permission.

· Secret places like the military and company area, which is forbidden because if you put out on the internet, other military groups in other countries could find out secret things and with companies because other companies cannot find out there secrets and plans.

· You cannot photo kids without permission from the parents.

· Poor people on the street, because it is not okay to just photograph any human just like that.

I looked at www.fotosidan.se/cldoc/1746.htm and a photographer called Mikael Pertmann had a different opinion than me. He said that t only a thing like art, movies and things which is has a copyright and is owned is forbidden to take photos of. And when I looked at the site I was shocked that many of these things that I don’t think should be allowed to photograph is legal is and just a thing that many people which to be forbidden. Mikael also says that it is okay to keep on photograph a person even if they do not want to. I think this is very weird because if someone says to stop, you should do what they say.
