As a wildlife photographer I guess I should ask "What are the ethics of shooting non-human animals in distress with a telephoto lens?"

Right, it's pick on the poor Scotsman week during Paddy's day week. I am confused.


potatoEYE - I am NOW understanding your photo. I was proud that I am becoming immersed in Canadian culture because I recognised the Timmy cup....NOW I see the rosary. I get it now.

Extortion. I asked for permission to take their photo, they asked for money. After the photo was taken they asked for MORE money.
