Random Pictures

In 2019 I started a '50 strangers' project that I never finished. I would approach perfect strangers on the street and and ask for their photos. I'd give a card with a URL where they could download the photo if they wanted it. I posted them on Facebook when I had an account.

There was an open air bar and this biker was seated facing the street.

Did you have them sign a release? I think that's required unless the rules have changed.

Asking permission was a courtesy. A release isn't necessary in public venues, and even in a bar or restaurant, or other private facility open to the public, unless a prohibition is conspicuously posted, no permission is required.

Folks don't have a reasonable expectation of privacy in public.

If a person is in public, anyone can be photographed or videotaped—no consent required. After all, we’re being recorded and photographed literally anywhere we go—streets, banks, restaurants, stores…you name it.

Yup.
We got a bunch of them here in the L-C Valley too. Anyone who has a koi pond better have some heavy duty chicken wire or else one of these is going to pick it clean.
Interesting. We have a similar looking crane, heron and egret. I’m never quite sure which one I’m looking at.
 
Boats lined up in the Gulf for scalloping near Crystal River.
