. . . . . . . rather than a phone like normal people, and it ‘“looked suspicious”.
So, because we have real cameras we're not normal people?

Yes, that was the implication.

I've gotten some people asking what I'm shooting for, personal or commercial, and I always answer that I'm doing personal photography. Where I usually go, though, I don't get that.

for future reference as long as you are someplace you are entitled to be like a public road or a sidewalk you're good to go. however the national parks are becoming a pain in the backside especially Zion in Utah and recently a friend was given a hard time by a ranger on the skyline drive in virginia. he was using a tripod and a large lens to shoot fall color and was asked for a permit which wasn't required but at the time he didn't know so he packed up and left. i am a retired natural resources police officer and i just don't understand whats going on here. photographers in my experience are among the most concientous people you will see as far as taking care of the land. but after the military and working for state government most of my adult life i know logic never enters into anything
That's actually very good to know about Skyline Drive. I almost went there with my family on vacation this past summer but missed it because we were running late (and it was very expensive to just drive through). I do plan on going back and camping/hiking through the Shenandoah so this is good information to know. I too would've packed up and left and then I'd look up the actual rules about it.

In addition to the usual tourist traffic on Skyline Drive & Blue Ridge Parkway there is a large amount of pressure from suburban Washington, D.C. residents. In the 70’s when I lived in central Virginia both were essentially deserted on weekdays.
