I'm afraid I've dubbed you a pervert, thinking them all pictures of the same girl. Stalking some poor lass across town with a camera's one thing. Taking the odd shot of random (leggy, female) people going about their business another.

When Adam delved and Eve span, Who was then the gentleman? From the beginning all men by nature were created alike, and our bondage or servitude came in by the unjust oppression of naughty men. For if God would have had any bondsmen from the beginning, he would have appointed who should be bound, and who free. And therefore I exhort you to consider that now the time is come, appointed to us by God, in which ye may (if ye will) cast off the yoke of bondage, and recover liberty. - John Ball

If you take more than one picture of a person you don't know. When the image focuses on the girl alone and not in connection with the background.Where does appreciation of beauty turn from spectatorship into voyeurism?
Sasaki's guideline is good too; glancing is one thing; staring is another.

It may be frail; its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storm may enter; the rain may enter; but the King of England cannot enter – all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement! - William Pitt the Elder
Re: Spectator or voyeur?
I don't mind if the girls look at my well-shaped behind either. And they do it, whether they look at mine is hard to say, don't have eyes in the back of my head but in general, they sure do it.
I don't take pictures of anyone usually so that is out of the question, and if I got that correctly the ones above were not taken by Louis?
When I was in Prague I saw a flash of a camera right behind a girl's skirt/jeans, I found that quite...you know...
However, it is hard to appreciate beauty without looking at it, and sometimes the details are very interesting, that doesn't always mean something dirty has to happen in the process, as I posted in the Frontroom I'm more the friendly friend type anyway (though incidentally I hardly ever hug a woman I'm not related to, I never know when it would be appropriate and prefer not to get too close).
