I’m with you 100%. Besides, nature is usually much more relaxing and enjoyable without effort. Not that I don’t like people, but I love to start my day outdoors.

I suspect his surreptitious actions were partly responsible for the response, but that’s what candid street photography is all about. I’d be not happy with the park department, if I were in his place.

I have the same concerns, Janet. I don’t have to get permission from wildlife, streams or mountains to take their picture. 🙂

This is an outrage, and a clear violation of his rights. What a bummer. How weird, like you mention that if he was on a phone no one would pay attention, but since he had the equivalent of a camera AR15 he was carted away and his car was searched(?). WTH.

There has to be a balance, but finding it is obviously sometimes fraught with difficulties.
