Photography and Cars

Post by XMEN Diamond Katana »

What do you guys think about having visible license plate numbers in photos? I ask because I want to respect the owners of the vehicles, but it also seems to ruin a photograph by blurring the plate when the vehicle is the center of attention.

Opinions?

Technically, you probably should.

I don't think there's anything legally binding you to it, but you'll want to check your local laws, of course. I think the blurred plate is a distraction in the photo unless it's done well.
