Waiting. And waiting (to make the text long enough to post).

I just know if I made photos in an airport I'd be visiting a jail in a new and different city pretty quickly. Isn't this a big no-no these days?

No, I shoot photos in airports every time I travel - no problems.
 
I think one just has to be discreet about it and careful what your point a camera at. I dont think they would be too keen on someone like Winogrand floating all around as he used to do.

That's where I'd get into trouble- because I'd be shooting stuff with no people in the shot- windows and stairways and the stuff easily seen as being 'of no above-board use'. Another reason I shoulda got that first Leica in 1966.:D
 
Taken in Toronto and Denver airports earlier this year.

I wouldn't care to even take my camera out of the bag at Heathrow (London).

I picked up a friend at Terminal 4 a couple of weeks ago and spent about 2 hours hanging around waiting for her to come through customs/immigration. I saw lots of photo opportunities but had no camera with me - probably a good thing because the place was also crawling with police and CSOs (pseudo police who have a habit of being over zealous!) just looking for someone to hassle.
 
Beautiful hallway shot vrgard- that's up my alley. Perhaps it's my appearance that adds to the 'hassle factor' I expect when shooting stuff like that.

Are you my long lost twin Chris?
 
can someone from australia (pref. adelaide) tell me, if i can get handcheck of film instead of x-ray when i enter the airport as a visitor?

i asked for a handcheck, the security refused
 
Randy, nice shot of the new Terminal I

Brad, great to see some images of these overlooked local airstrips.

Here are 2 from Toronto's Terminal II the 3 hours prior to it's closure and demolition
