Recently obtained a DSLR camera and went to my local station to test it out (Nottingham Station)
It was already dark and I wanted to take some photos of trains to test out the camera.
I had some station staff come over and ask what I was doing to which I explained what I was doing (shocking I know) because apparently there was some people informing station staff of my activities, I took a photo in a certain direction and got told I couldn't take a photo over there due to there being a government building (the building in question I presume is HM Land Registry - Nottingham Office) in the background (despite it being pitch black and the station staff not understanding how a DSLR takes photos and asking me to zoom out of my picture)
It was admittedly a naff photo so I deleted it and went home as the rain was picking up.
I must ask however... am I in the wrong?
If not, what should I say if I get confronted again?
I wasn't being aggressive in any manner, I in fact thanked the station staff for telling me this info as I perceived it to be good advice, but now I have my doubts...
Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this...
