A Change to the National Park Photo & Video Permit Rule
It seems the permit requirement for photography & videography/filmmakers in the National Parks has been lifted.
https://youtu.be/nvJRgGle9wU ....but drone take off, landing, and operation is still illegal in the National Parks. The operation wording means you can’t take off outside a park and then fly into and over the park. -- Regards, Savageduck |

In fact it's hard to understand why people would need a permit to take pictures in a national park. -- Alfred Molon Olympus 4/3 and micro 4/3 cameras forum at https://groups.io/g/myolympus https://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |

According to the blog Duck linked, the ruling only affects commercial videography. The law* dates to 2000. Here's the National Park Service's take on it: https://www.nps.gov/aboutus/news/com...to-permits.htm * According to the posted ruling, "...the permitting requirements imposed on commercial filming by 54 U.S.C. § 100905 and its implementing regulations, 43 C.F.R. Part 5 and 36 C.F.R. § 5.5." If anybody's interested in reading the federalese: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/54/100905 https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/43/part-5 https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/36/5.5 Ruling was found at: https://www.nationalparkstraveler.or...national-parks -- Joe Makowiec http://makowiec.org/ Email: http://makowiec.org/contact/?Joe Usenet Improvement Project: http://twovoyagers.com/improve-usenet.org/ |

The ultimate goal of the nature loons is that most people are prohibited from entering national parks and that they be preserved for the animals and a few elitist environmentalists. So...it was a good thing that Adams was employed by the US to take photos of our National Parks. -- best regards, Neil |

The US provided him steady employment through the 1930’s and most of the 1940’s.He even maintained a studio in Yosemite NP. Some of his more noted work was his documentation of the internment camp at Manzanar, in the Eastern Sierras. Then in the 50’s & 60’s he switched from view camera to Hasselblad sponsorship, and started making money. -- Regards, Savageduck |

The ultimate goal of the nature loons is that most people are prohibited from entering national parks and that they be preserved for the animals and a few elitist environmentalists. But then it would have been the other way round: the (few) professional photographers are allowed in and may take photos, the masses are locked out. Instead it appears the pros needed a permit to take pictures, while the masses didn't. -- Alfred Molon Olympus 4/3 and micro 4/3 cameras forum at https://groups.io/g/myolympus https://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site Adams wasn't swimming in money, even in later years, even paying a permit fee might have been beyond his means. People pay for a permit when they do commercial work, which helps to pay for the park upkeep and they also get to use or the presumption is they'll be using more elaborate or disruptive equipment in their work. For example; you can't use a tripod with a camera as an amateur in a shooting in a subway but can shoot for free, but you can if you are a professional with a permit. Not too many photographers were shooting in the National Parks in quite the same way as Adams. https://www.dropbox.com/s/v0dif2kcbg3r1jv/screenshot_515.jpg -- Regards, Savageduck |

A significant portion of "his portfolio" that involved the National Parks was paid work. He was obviously still taking photos after his decades of employment by the US ended. So what? -- best regards, Neil |
