Little Boy, Borough Market

Scott,you probably now know more about London that many Brits and certainly a lot of Londoners and have taken a lot of pictures; street photos with people, bridges, national monuments etc. It might be educational if you were to make a thread about your experiences good and bad about how much freedom you felt you had

I feel the U.K. may have a bad press in the U.S. about how restrictive photography is here and how there may be a Muslim terrorist around every corner with Muslim "no-go" areas that even the police dare not enter, let alone a tourist. The impression may be that the general populace and police feel "on edge" all the time and both act accordingly.

@pentaxuser I never had that sense while I was there. Nobody reacted badly to me carrying a camera (well, there was one grumpy old man who waved me off when he thought he was going to be in my photo, but that was it). Granted I was in some very touristy areas, where every other person was toting a camera. But still, London was relaxed, friendly, and safe.

Borough Market was where there was a Terrorist Attack, was it not ? People killed and the Police actually SHOT the terrorists-- usually they are TOO SOFT and they get off with a 'warning' and 'Suspended Sentence' and told not to be bad boys----

Thanks Scott. Good to know that you felt safe and unhindered
