Originally posted by FHPhotographer First, presuming you know what anyone is going to say is insulting.
Second, you are making a statement attributing to me something I didn't say and then arguing from that attribution, i.e., I did not at any point advance the opinion that "any photograph of a stranger is unethical unless taken by a member of the press." You do read the posts before commenting on them, correct? You do know there is a difference between what other people actually say and what you allege they say, right?

You could just respond to the answer I provided to your question, rather than openly insulting me.
I don't see how anything I've said could be seen as insulting.
You have said that candid, street photography of strangers is unethical. When candid, street photography in the name of photojournalism was mentioned, you expressed that that was different than unethical, candid, street photography by amateurs.
Also, you speaking down to me and nearly every other poster in this thread with an opinion opposing yours is truly insulting.
If you want direct quotes I can provide them when I next get my laptop to a free wifi area. Anything more than simple posting is cumbersome on my phone.
