		<description>I really enjoy architectural photography and have had a number of run in's with Security folk who argue you can't take a photo of their building even when you are on public property!! However, this episode really bothered me when I recently made a trip to Chicago. I wandered around and there was an event in a plaza in front of this building with acrobats. I did a bit of shooting of them &#38; then noticed that the building behind them was very interesting and walked inside to a huge atrium and took some images. Another guy walked in with his point &#38; shoot and took some images as well. So I walk outside and take some more shoots of some great columns across the street and this Illinois police officer comes up and asks me what I'm doing. I explain that I love architecture and had traveled to Chicago to capture some of the fantastic buildings. He says I can't shoot the building because it's City Hall. I ask him how in the world would I know that. He points to a tiny sign! It also turns out that the building I was in &#38; shooting the interior of was a State building. I show him my images and he still asks for my ID and calls it in. Meanwhile lots of people are shooting with their point &#38; shoots without a hassle. Since when did being a photographer become such a crime?</description>
