How do you tell private from public land?
Discussion
Whilst searching for a new angle on Tower Bridge the other night, came across this lovely setting by a bridge around St. Katherine's docks, very picturesque, barely got the pod out, cam mounted and started snapping before security appeared and told me it was private, I was being monitored and did I have a permit, I cannot use a tripod.
When i asked what is private, he said everything, and flung his arms about. Not wanting to draw attention I packed up and left, but how do you know they are not just saying that, there are no signs, he didn't provide any proof. Its for personal use, so going to the land registry is not viable, what is the general consensus in these situations?
From what I understand I can take a photo of anything providing I am standing on public land, but how do I know its public.
