I was considering situations where that risk had already been addressed (shooting with a long lens from a direction they're not paying attention to -- such as from a 3rd-floor window). So my concerns are for post-publication fallout if they do see it on the web. (And as for the non-lawyerly danger, I'm more worried about a firebombing than a beating. I think petty vandalism is more likely thn either, but I haven't forgotten the family that burned to death in another part of the city a few years ago after drug dealers objected to their attempts to help the police make their block a safe place to raise kids. I'm hoping that riders of illegal dirt bikes are not as motivated as drug dealers.) -- Glenn -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
