Make it your shot
- Current shop/forecourt permission, visitor access and hours unknown. Visible Take a Photo sign is image evidence only and not an asserted present photography policy.
- Stay on permitted pedestrian routes. Ask a companion to take the portrait rather than stepping into traffic or leaving equipment unattended.
- Get permission where required and keep other people out of frame unless they agree.
- Use the background as inspiration. The exact standing point, current access and light still need checking on arrival.
