No Photographers Allowed!
At today's flickr mini-meet at Flying Star, while eating - but after paying - our small group was confronted by restaurant staff and told to put our cameras away or leave. Flying Star has apparently become a NO CAMERA establishment.
We were just enjoying ourselves, quietly talking about cameras and life. We weren't causing problems or shoving our cameras in other patrons faces. A visibly angry person confronted our group in a loud voice and, I think, tried to embarrass us. We were basically told that they don't serve our kind.
This is a huge bummer to me, but I'll abide by their wishes. I won't visit another Flying Star or Satellite coffee. Ever. In fact, I'll go out of my way to spread the word of their intolerant anti-photo policy and insist that my friends eat and drink elsewhere.
so, to sum up. Got a camera? FLYING STAR DOES NOT WANT YOUR MONEY.
