Really? Me too! What a coincidence!

I prefer Aikido

When taking photos of the Aqueduct I noted a house with scaffold and realised it would take me right out of the trees and give me an A1 view. However I did not have the nerve to ask so left untaken.

However I did climb to top of batching plant to watch last concords take off. But only camera was mobile phone so not a good image.

Yeah this is tough. Generally I'd love to say I've got no inhibitions in getting the shot, but I do have many. Driving around my rural area at times I can see interesting shots- sunsets, farm structures, mountains, etc- but it seems more often than not there's something I don't really want in the frame- usually barbed wire fences, electric lines, roads. And the clearest perspective usually appears to be from inside the property, not roadside. If there is easy access and no home in sight I would probably go for it. As long as I don't encroach too far onto the property. Longer zooms can help "crop" out those distractions, but sometimes I'm wanting to go wide.

I trespassed very slightly today...a notice posted prohibitions against hunting, but not photography, so I got some lovely shots of a pond, meadow and farmhouse. Gorgeous colors. I'll post later.

Around here most farmland is fenced. And a new restriction to photogs is that if a fence is up, it is intended to keep people out. Saskatchewan has passed a trespassing law that will see many photographers charged if they fail to receive permission from the land owner to enter their property.

Wow. and people say Canadians are friendly. : P

I think it's a credit to Canada that it's taken this long to apply such a law.
Over here that's been the case as long as I can remember. You are allowed to follow a dedicated path or direct line to someones front door though ... as long as you have a valid reason for doing so. I don't think "I wanted a photo of your swimming pool" would cut it

Matt always obeys the rules

when I finally get my farm I will be sure to post signs: 'Photographers welcome'
