Hey, no pictures!

Sometimes it's just not appropriate-- or legal-- to pull out your camera and snap a photo. Like when you're standing in front of the Mona Lisa, or getting the run-around from a Customs official, or at the scene of a criminal investigation. Thankfully, not everyone feels so constricted by "No Photography" policies.

A website called Strictly No Photography describes itself as "Photo-sharing for pictures taken where you are not allowed to take them," like art galleries, religious sites, and government buildlings. The photos are divided into different categories-- Government, Live Music, Transport-- and the site encourages submissions from amateur photographers.

Check the photos out here.

And got an illicit pic you'd like to share? [And, no, not that kind, sicko.] Register and submit your own photos here.
