That being said, yes, if you were in a company parking lot you were on private property, and they did have every right to ask you to leave, but that's about all they could do to you, is ask you to leave, failing which they could have you charged with trespassing. At no time do they have any right to seize your equipment or images. cheers, frank ========== Pretty much what I had decided, frank. The one thing is, they seemed to be well-informed about what they could and could not do. The guy sort of looked at me sideways when he asked me for information, since I didn't really feel threatened, I gave them my name and phone number, but no more. I didn't want them to try to charge me with trespassing, so I wanted to appear to be cooperative. But I probably could have said no earlier to info. and I felt he knew that. I suppose a big company like Shell keeps their security guards well informed. And/or it's happened before. Probably has. I did wonder, thanks for clearing it up.
