I was filming a demolition derby for the venue owners and someone from the crowd did not use real good judgement, in my opinion.
Increasingly venues will need to put up signs saying 'Drone photography only with permission' and be willing to stop the event if visitors cannot follow those instructions.
It's the distinction between having a photographers' pass and just being a guest - photographers have an obligation to ensure safety and be identifiable and responsible for their machine.
At the moment, too many people see a drone in the air and think "oh, I can do that with mine".
PatR, he was not.Don't know if the Phantom operator was doing that at the request of the venue staff or not but there sure has been a lot of that kind of activity from that owners group.
