The ethics of camera's

[Geoff Sykes]

Oh, of course. Of course. But the current condition of the instrument should
include, to some extent, the environment in which it lives. Of course that
is an extremely broad interpretation, and so it rubs up against my ethics.
Again. Just the same...

Of the piano, of course, not the home.....

I'm not sure why it is an ethics dilemma for you Geoff.  It is not uncommon
in various trades to photograph your work or the items you work on, for
various purposes.  If for no other reason than documenting the current
condition of the instrument, I'd think you would be clear to take whatever
photos you feel necessary.  My opinion.

Greetings all --
 
Every once in a while I find myself working on a piano that for one reason
or another I want to visually share with others. I seldom feel uncomfortable
asking permission to take that kind of picture. But on the occasions where I
am in someone's home and it's just so amazingly wonderful, (or hideous),
that I can't help but want to share the experience with others, I feel very
uncomfortable even asking to take photos. OK, I could go clandestine but
that's where my ethics kick in. Especially since the camera in my phone is
completely inadequate for the job. Does this ever happen to you? What do you
do?
