My understanding (admittedly limited) is you ONLY need a release if you are 
going to use the photo for commercial uses. For news, educational or personal 
use you never need a release. I've occasionally had hospital/nursing home or 
other institutional administrators insist on getting releases from subjects 
but that is to protect THEM, the personal responisble for the subject's care, 
not me.
