I HATE the idea of photo permits. I just don't like the idea of having to obtain permission to take a photograph of a publically visable and accessible passanger vehicle.Having said that... I could live with such a proposal for the forseeable future, providing: It financially benefits worthy and deserving organizations, such as the Transit Museum and the nation's trolley/rail/bus museums A premium version of the permit which would be valid nationally (i.e., other US transit systems), for a longer time period (2-3 years) for a slightly higher price A transit employees' version which would allow for the photographing of vehicles on transit property FOR STRICTLY PERSONAL, NON-COMMERCIAL, NON-PUBLISHABLE USE (depot, car barns) It is easy to apply for and renew every year, or two, or three (in person, via mail, or the Internet) Under those circumstances, I could live with such a proposal. Hey, if all else fails, let's give it a shot. |
