A while ago I made a post on hear asking if it was OK to post pictures of people in street photography, the general consensus was yes and its legal in England.
For some context I’m building a portfolio for uni and wanted to show off all my images.
Well my frend mentioned today it was super creepy and run as I didn’t have their consent.
I’m torn, it was in a public place, its completely legal, you can’t really tell who thay are in most of them,
Idk, I feel super bad, but I don’t wanna delete them as they really add to my uni application. All photos have some people in If you’re taking street photography.
What should I do?
It’s not fair, nor ethical to put someone’s face or identity on the internet without their consent, no matter what the law says. If they are obscure and unremarkable in identity then probably. It isn’t about deleting, once on the internet is always, not even if it’s free.
