I realise that I'm probably very much in the minority here as everybody seems to want to be an exhibitionist these days and post photographs of themselves, their family, and pet cat on all the web sites in the world for everyone to see. That's up to them, of course.

However, I'm afraid that every time I see these pesky photographers wandering around gigs, sessions, workshops(even) with their cameras I can't help but get irritated.
Fair enough, if the performers give permission but the audiences should be left in peace. Also, I like to "enjoy a tune" in a session or a have a dance at a ceilidh with worrying about my privacy being constantly invaded.

Of course, I've no objection to friends taking my photograph especially if I'm asked first but I don't want to stumble upon my picture posted on some website or have all my "bum notes" available for everyone to enjoy on You Tube.

As I say, I'm probably a lone voice here but maybe there a few others out there who agree with me but are just "too nice" to complain?
