So I was wandering around Barnes & Noble last evening... and taking happy snaps. I was approached by the manager.. and told I was not allowed to take photos in the store. Who knew ?
Kinda bummed me out.
I had always considered stores like that to be the perfect place to take random photos.. and it is a public place ? So I thought there was no problem. hmmmmmmmmmmmm.
That makes the 2nd time I've been asked to not take photos in a public place. The other place was a grocery store. Does anyone know the rulings on this ?
