[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]A similar project was done a year or so ago by Michael Wolf, a German photographer living and working in Hong Kong, whom I have met since my daughter helped edit one of his photo books on Hong Kong shop houses. Wolf's pictures showed more identifiable people than the New York ones and there was talk of suing for invasion of privacy but as far as I know nothing has come of it. But then Hong kong is not such a litigious society.

And the subjects thought they had an expectation of privacy with curtains drawn? I think the ones suing are on equally thin ice. Had this been done in France, Canada, etc. not so sure.
