This was one of the very first "i'm a photographer" compositions I did, too haha. Except yours is much better; I like the way the two bridges are balanced perfectly in the middle of the chain link, and the motion blur of the cars. I think this is a common shot, but that yours is rewarding to look at. Would be even better without the light pole, probably R0005516 by Austin DeGroot, on Flickr

It's a public protest?

Viginti Septem posted:It's a public protest? Being photographed at protests has led to charges and/or arrests later(usually dropped but it's a form of police harassment.) The real lesson is that everyone should mask up and wear nondescript clothing if you're going to a protest or march or rally. Still waiting for my film or I'd post something photography related edit: vv well yes, ideally Admiral Bosch fucked around with this message at 19:35 on Jan 3, 2024 |

You kind of need people to document protests for them to have any effect. It's no help if just the police documents them (which they will do).

Yea, that seems like the whole point of people going to a public space to protest. They WANT to intrude on everyday life for a bit to bring attention to a cause. Again I circle back to the police being the problem in this case. Much like when cops/cities limit WHERE public protests can happen, where they choose areas that won't affect everyday life. That's the whole point of the protest, to affect everyday life, and bring attention to the cause.

evil_bunnY posted:It'd be nice to not ID people who can suffer professional damage from attending protests like this one. It is a public march, through a major city high street with god knows how many CCTV cameras, which remained fully civil, and had by my count 11 other photographers. I have been through the work of at least 7 of them, they also posted whatever they got. There were about 16 police officers posted on the march too. There were also regular adults, mothers and children. This is not photography of direct action, but just a standard march on another week in a city. The police were even notified in advance, and effectively stewarded the pathway the march took. If it were direct action where the distinction between private individual and public action were blurred, or if it lost civility, I would act responsibly by discarding any photographs I took of the march. This did not happen, however. For example, if it was photographic evidence of key individuals committing a crime in the name of activism as part of the Elbit occupation not too far from where I live, I would never take a picture and never share it if I did unless all individuals were fully masked. However, this was a public march with pre-notice given to local law enforcement. The purpose of the march is to draw attention. To then hide away all evidence that it took place would be to undermine the very effort. I know people like to take this approach of acting like every protest carries risk for everyone in attendance, but they apply it too broadly and on the wrong demonstrations. I am from someone who is personally involved in all of this stuff through various orgs and associations. I know what I am doing and would treat it would caution and care if the action was of any nature that could bring personal harm. Those organising, to whom I am affiliated, even called for as many pictures to be taken and disseminated as possible, so as to prove the point that people do not support the cause is false. Nobody at this march was under any illusion. As stated by others, the issue isn't that physical memory of the action exists, it is that police can harass for it. But they need cause, and they gave this their blessing.

It's good to hear that you're involved in the movement and have contact with the protesters and had been encouraged to be there and to disseminate. Though, it is good to always be aware of potential issues with privacy like evil_bunnY was doing. Especially around certain topics and in certain locations. If this was taken in China and those protesters were there to push for rights to Taiwan...

Absolutely. Keeping in mind what is being photographed and why it is happening is a key concern when it comes to public action. However, I have personally organised more radical action than this march. This is what I'd tout as the march of the wrinklies, with not a single speaker at the pre-speeches under 40. If the police were going for anyone, it would have been 3 months ago, or for the sporadic occupations of private or civilian infrastructure. However, I never photographed any of those, for the reasons above.
