No trespassing signs, and fences that keep me from getting a great shot. :lol:
And yes I have had the people who walk in to my shot before, but that does not bother me too much. I am used to waiting sometimes to get what I want. The only time it bothers me is when I show another shooter the courtesy pf not getting in their shot, and they do not show it to me. I had some young punk Canon user do this to me the last time. I should have thrown him over the waterfall I was trying to shoot before the light got in a bad place. They would not have found the body till he floated down to the Phoenix area.

Being told by some city officials that I'm not allowed to use a tripod.
Why not?!

 Motion blur.  I mean when I take a really nicely framed shot (at an event), the person is smiling and when I look closely... motion freakin' blur from my hands... gosh darn it.

No problem with folks walking into my shot; I just stop and out-wait them.  More time for me to look around for other angles and perspectives.  What frustrates me is people with smart phones getting in the way--knowing that their photos will look like c******.
