Greenwich 11/12/05

Lets start this thread off by saying today was quite a different experience in Greenwich. First off i spent 2 hours at Miller Motorcars talking with a good friend of mine-Werner Pfister. So 2 hours go by and he had some business to take care of so i decided i would walk down to the main avenue. Upon my arrival is a beautiful blue 360 Spider! So im taking pictures of it and decide to move on. As im walking down i see something parked thats yellow and caught my eye right away. I stumbled upon a Lamborghini Diablo 6.0!! As im taking pictures i noticed a Ferrari sticker on the windshield. Looked quite familiar then the owner comes out. I talk to him fo a few minutes asking him what other cars he owns and it happens to be Mr. Amenasce!! It was really cool meeting him and he was really generous and one of the highlights of my day Well i walk around for awhile seeing more 360s, F430s, and some other nice stuff when i stumble upon a red 360 Spider. No one is around so i take a couple pictures and im on my way. About 1 hour later i come back and see the lights on nd the engine running....so this is how the story goes- hes sitting there with his lights on, engine running, and on his cell. So i go take 2 pictures of the car WITHOUT flash. He then rolls down the window and yells "respect my privacy!" I said im just taking pictures....Well i go sit down on a bench which is right near the car. I see him giving me dirty looks then im thinking i have every right to take pictures. We are both on public property and there is no law against it. So i see he is about to leave so i wanted to get another picture so i went and took one and i see him rolling down his window. He said... "Im gonna call the police your harassing me!!" Im told him go ahead im just taking pictures. He then said "i told you not to take pictures your harassing me!!" I said "no, you said respect your privacy in a rude manner." I then told him he gives a bad name to Ferrari owners. He said "I give a bad name to everything" i then walked away swearing at him then i see him actually leaving so i go back and take pics of him leaving. This is officially the first rude owner ive ever come upon!! What does everyone else think?

So what you are saying is that you blatantly invaded his privacy by starting to shoot his car on a public road the owner did not appreciate it and told you to stop, which makes him rude? His car might be on a public road, but you are still invading his privacy by shooting it. I can't believe how you can just go about shooting a car with the owner still in it. If you look closely at what kind of shots there are published on this site you'll see that all are taken at official events where owners show the car. This particular owner uses his car and I am sure he really gets sick from kids shooting his car at every corner. His lawyer would have a field day if he field a complaint. You should learn to respect people, not harrass them.
