Why did the police show up? What was being done wrong? It's not against the law to take photos in a mall. If the owners (through their agents, the mall cops) don't want you to take photos, they have the right to ask you to leave. If you don't leave, you can be charged with trespass. But you can't be charged with taking photographs. As far as I know, that's not yet against the law. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- 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.
