Even in ancient times, our ancestors gave the mirror magical properties. It is enough to remember the endless fairy tales in which you could see how your brother or parents are doing or find out the answers to all your questions.
However, there are 13 words that should never be used before or now:
- Pain. This word, as well as derivatives from it, attract various diseases and unpleasant symptoms to a person.
- Badly. All failures and misfortunes are attracted to the speaker.
- Ugly. Appearance changes for the worse, rashes appear.
- Horror. Troubles overtake a person in all his affairs and life.
- Stupidity. Memory lapses begin, the smart one becomes stupid.
- Poor. Money disappears, poverty sets in.
- Disgusting. Everyone turns away from the person.

- Sadness. A person has sharp bouts of blues, health problems are falling.
- I suffer. All manifestations of ill health turn into a serious illness.
- Uselessness. Relationships with children deteriorate in parents, and there is discord among loved ones.
It should be remembered that any of the above words and phrases spoken in the mirror will instantly materialize. You should not send negativity.
What other words cannot be pronounced while looking in the mirror In addition to the words that are prohibited for use in front of a dressing table, there are also a number of unacceptable phrases:
- I wanted to sneeze at everything. Health problems appear.
- These are natural hemorrhoids. Troubles pile up very quickly.
- My head is about to explode. Pain in the temples and brain begins.
- I can't digest it. Digestive problems.
- I drank all the blood. Diseases of the circulatory system.
- You don't love me at all. Discord with a loved one.
- How plump I am. Digestive problems, lack of money.
- I can not take it anymore. A measured life turns into a full of problems and troubles.
- We are so poor. Wealth turns into poverty.
- It's unbearable to live like this. Serious troubles begin.
So that troubles and health problems do not overtake you, you need to do three things:
- Do not speak negatively to the mirror.
- Program the dressing table for positive, constantly talking about your success and prosperity.
- Approach him with a smile.
Why is it dangerous to look in the mirror for a long time?
To answer this question, the following reasons can be noted:
- It's bad for the psyche. It has long been noticed that those who often look in a dressing table show depression and growing dissatisfaction with their appearance. As a result, a person begins to use tons of cosmetics and maniacally change his body.
- Leads to soul loss. It is believed that a particle of each person lives in the mirror. And when they look into it, it flows away through the mirror.
- The loss vital energy. Often a person, moving away from the glass, feels very tired and sad. This is due to the fact that, looking into their eyes, a person loses energy. Also, you can not look in the mirror on the street, as it instantly absorbs all the negativity of passers-by.
- You can see your ancestors. It is believed that the dead remain in the mirrors. A person looking into them may be drawn inward by the call of his relatives. Thus, in order not to suffer from mirrored glasses, it is necessary to linger near it for no more than three minutes. And everything will be fine.
Why it is impossible to look together in the mirror for a man with a woman?
Men and women should not look in the mirror at the same time for the same reason. Each of them can see some secret desires of their partner, find out the true thoughts and plans. On this basis, even among older and wise people, quarrels and conflicts can also arise. This is especially dangerous when a relationship is just emerging. At this stage, everything is easy to destroy, since each of the partners is not ready to accept the other with all his shortcomings and virtues.
Why can't you cry in front of a mirror?
Do you cry and look in the mirror? Look out! There is an opinion that tearful reflections repel happiness from people. Mirror, this is the object where we look, make sure that appearance in order. When we look good, it seems to us that life has become better, more pleasant, and everything we have planned turns out. Superstitions associated with the mirror say that reflections remember the current state and then reproduce it. The conclusion follows: the more often we smile and see ourselves happy, the more joy we will bring into our lives. You need to warn yourself against sobbing in front of a reflective surface, so as not to tune your fate in a sad way.
Why can't you take pictures in front of a mirror?
People who are versed in mysticism believe that in the process of creating a picture, a person is able to “call” something completely unexpected and unpleasant from the depths of the mirror memory. Remember the various programs on extrasensory topics, where in the photograph they saw not only a person, but a phantom captured in a mirror surface. It's not a fact that something like this happens every time you take a photo, for example, in the gym or in the elevator (girls love it). But when taking pictures against the background of ancient mirrors, it’s definitely not worth it in the same museums or any architectural monuments. Just remember that the looking glass is an existing separate world where entities from another dimension live.
If we consider this prohibition from a scientific point of view. Let's be honest, we take most of the photos so that we can later post them on social networks, and everyone has their own goal, someone just wants to brag, someone "annoys" the former, etc. We choose the angle, pose, look, etc. for a long time. e. Like, what's wrong with that? But in fact, not everything is so simple. American scientists at one institute spent 15 years studying the effect of mirrors on the person himself. The experiments were carried out using a highly sensitive magnetic wave detector, and showed that any reflective surface is a kind of energy vampire. People who spend a lot of time in front of a mirror often feel tired, overwhelmed, and irritated. It seems incredible, but those who love to admire themselves grow old a little faster than those who treat their reflection as if indifferently.
NO ONE BELIEVE IN IT TODAY
Did a friend take a picture of you in front of a mirror suddenly, without warning and without asking? Explain to her that this is not the way to do it. After all, you will share one man! So you will lose your girlfriend, and you will be completely disappointed in people.
PHOTOGRAPHY IN THE MIRROR EXTENDS NEGATIVITY NOT ONLY TO HUMANS
This proves the result of one of the interesting experiments. Of the four chickens (exactly the same), one was photographed (in the mirror). The photographs were distributed to many, many people. All owners of the photo were told to look at the chicken when they were sad and very sad. After some time, the chick, who became a fashion model, began to noticeably lag behind in development and literally died before our eyes.
The Danger of Mirror Photography Let's say you've taken a photo "through the looking-glass". The photo remained, and the mirror in which the photo was taken broke (due to yours or because of someone else's negligence). The photo starts working instantly! Shards of the mirror "transmit" evil and all the worst to her. This negativity is also transmitted to you (as if in a chain).
People who are used to being photographed in a mirror gradually lose their energy. You can safely draw an analogy with photographs of sleeping people
Why can't you sleep in front of a mirror?
Mirrors can cause a whole series of unmotivated problems in a person's life, both in personal life and health. This is because in the mirror there is a refraction, reflection and distortion of the information received, especially for old mirrors. And as for antique mirrors, it’s generally better not to hang them in the bedroom, they have accumulated so much information during their existence that it will only have a negative impact and there will be only harm from them.
If we move away from magical influence, then at the level of physiology there are also explanations for why it is impossible to sleep in front of a mirror. In a half-asleep state, any movement outside the line of sight is subconsciously perceived as a danger signal, and, fixing the reflection in the mirror, the brain “begins” to get nervous and panic. In addition, the mirror in the bedroom breaks the intimate atmosphere, it creates the illusion that there is someone else in the bedroom.
Why can't you take pictures of sleeping people?
It was from the above theory of the emergence of superstition that it went that if a person with eyes closed, which means that he is no longer in the world of the living.
Currently, the more common version is that if you take a picture of a sleeping person, then in this way you can call trouble on him and, even worse, bring the day of his death closer.
It is not recommended to photograph a sleeping person for another reason. The fact that the soul travels in a dream is an indisputable fact. When taking a picture, you can wake up a person, and if his soul was near the body, then it can be damaged, but if it flew somewhere far away at that time, then upon returning it may not find its physical body. By the way, for the same reason, it is not advised to transfer a sleeping child to bed.
And finally, the most common version of why there is a taboo on photographing sleeping people is that the human soul leaves the body during sleep and makes it very vulnerable. Photographing a sleeping person can adversely affect his energy.
Why does a man's watch stop when he dies?
The fact is that, being on the hand for a long time, a metal watch (especially with an iron or leather strap on the left hand) becomes part of the human electromagnetic field, as if included in the electrical circuit, playing the role of a kind of grounding. All the energy of the body flows to this end point (in electronics, such a part is called a terminator, or a plug).
Gradually, after a few months of wearing, the terminator watch acquires the charge of the human field, is fed by it. The energy of the compressed spring is supplemented by the energy of the human field.
Did you know that one single photo can change your life? Don't believe? But that is exactly what the bioenergetics claim. The photo is charged with the personal energy of a person. The image of a person is a very powerful energy message that affects, first of all, the one who is depicted in the portrait. It is not for nothing that our ancient ancestors believed that the image in the portrait has an impact on the one depicted on it.
Photography eliminated the intermediary between the person who looks at the portrait and the model depicted on it. This intermediary is an artist who provided the sitter with his talent. In the case of the photo, there is no such intercessor. In addition, the photographic image from an energy point of view, is more vulnerable to the person who is depicted on it. At the same time, it should be noted that both harm and beneficial effects can be inflicted on the object of influence by influencing a photograph.
A frame should be chosen for the photo - it is best that it be a wooden frame. Among other things, next to the photo you need to put an object that symbolizes health. It can be an item donated to those depicted in the photograph. It will have a positive beneficial effect.
Often people frame photos of their loved ones and memorable events to decorate their homes and keep memories. But the choice of such photographs should be approached very carefully, it is necessary to carefully select the background for the photograph. For example, photographs with fountains in the background, beautiful scenery or flowing water. 
Among other things, according to feng shui photography, you can use photos from those moments in your life when you felt good, either in some places on vacation, or with your family and friends, when you were happy, healthy, whole and harmonious. Most people prefer to frame their wedding photos. This is a happy event in a person's life - the memory of which feeds his energy. But if you decide to put a wedding photo on the table or hang it on the wall, then you need to carefully consider the choice of a frame for it. It can affect family relationships.
Remember that the frame must be selected, namely, to the photo, and not to the interior or the color of the walls.
. For a portrait, a simple frame of concise color is suitable. Black white photo it is better to place it in a white or gray frame. And a color photo will look good in a light frame.
tones. A wedding photo inserted in a red frame will add passion to the relationship of the spouses, and tenderness in a pink frame. But if the couple began to quarrel often, then a frame where blue and brown colors are combined will give balance to their relationship. Frames for wedding photos have a special energy. Its color has a particularly powerful effect. For example, if the family is experiencing difficulties and overcoming them, then it is better to use a yellow frame. Yellow color will bring optimism, joy and comfort to the family. In general, the choice of any photo frame should be taken seriously, because if the frame is chosen correctly, then it is able to emphasize the dignity of the photo, harmonize the space, and bring comfort to the house. A green frame can ruin relationships and spouses will constantly find out who is in charge in the family, but in combination with purple, green can have a positive effect on the well-being of the family. 
If there is some bright detail in the photo, then the frame can repeat the color of this detail. Do not forget about the style in which the photo was taken. Too chic photo frame, weakens the energy of the people depicted in the photo
, in addition, remember that the cardboard or plastic on the back of the photo that holds the photo in the frame should not have any drawings or inscriptions or images. Photography, like a person, has the right to personal space and there should not be any third-party intrusions here.
Psychologists advise putting photos on your desktop. After all, memories of loved ones and happy events help to quickly cope with unpleasant thoughts and negative emotions. But esotericists warn - if your work is associated with constant hands-on work - portraits of relatives are not needed here. People, in the process of work, very often have to deal with various emotions, including unpleasant, negative ones. And if you have a photograph of a person close to you on your table, then in the process of such interaction, the negative that was generated in the process of this communication can be transferred, including to the object depicted in the photograph. Envious or simply anxious glances of colleagues can negatively affect the people who are captured in the photograph. But if you feel the need to have the image of a close and beloved person at work, you should protect it with the help of a talisman. To protect a person from alien negative influences- put a magical mineral next to his photograph, for example, agate or black obsidian. They are very good at neutralizing magical negative effects.
Photography is a receptive conductor of energy impact. Through it, you can point at a person, both luck and, so be careful about your photos and those of your loved ones. Happiness and prosperity to you and your dear people!
If an unusual incident happened to you, you saw a strange creature or an incomprehensible phenomenon, you had an unusual dream, you saw a UFO in the sky or became a victim of alien abduction, you can send us your story and it will be published on our website ===> .
The best academic minds are half a step away from creating artificial intelligence, but human nature is arranged in such a way that many of our contemporaries refuse to believe in numerous omens and superstitions.
They say you can't take pictures a sleeping person, children under 1 year old, you can not be photographed in the mirror and so on. Stupid superstitions, most of you will say. But it may not be so simple. Let's try to understand.
Our ancestors believed that the soul of a sleeping person leaves the body and goes to wander during sleep. Therefore, during sleep, the human body is deprived of protection and is attacked by evil forces. A sleeping person does not move from one place to another. It was believed that if the body moves, then the returning soul cannot find it, the result is death.
In addition to photographing a sleeping person, it is categorically impossible to draw him as well, because such actions take away his strength, provoke the development of diseases and lead to death.
Mystics believe that a photograph carries a lot of information about a person. They say that a part of the human soul and a trace of energy remains in the photograph. Witches and sorcerers can read this information and use it to inflict evil or evil eye on a person. Considering that the sleeping person is in an exhausted state, the influence on him through the photo will be even stronger.
It is also worth adding that in order to perform evil magical rituals, the sorcerer does not need to have a photo of the victim printed on paper, his electronic version will be quite enough for him.
In addition to mystical answers to the question "why it is impossible to photograph sleeping people", there are quite real explanations. First of all, it is worth mentioning a bright flash and a shutter click, which can scare a sleeping person.
In addition to the fact that the photographer runs the risk of hearing a few not very pleasant words addressed to him, a sleeping person, especially a child, may experience disturbances in functioning due to fright. nervous system and a phobia may develop.
Finally, the most intuitive answer to this question, which will satisfy both believers in mysticism and reject its existence: a sleeping person does not need to be photographed, because such photographs look completely unattractive. This is because during sleep, the muscle groups of the body relax, and the position of the body cannot be predicted for the entire period of sleep.
What else, according to mystics, cannot be done with photographs?
1. You can not photograph children under one year old
But few parents can resist taking some wonderful shots of their little one. Therefore, if you take photos, do not show them to unfamiliar people, and even more so do not post them on social networks.
This prohibition is explained by the fact that the energy field of babies up to a year old is completely defenseless, so they are open to absolutely any attacks.
2. You can not take pictures in the mirror
Mirrors are able to perfectly absorb the energy of a person, or rather his energy trace. When a person photographs himself in a mirror, he pulls on himself all the negative energy collected in it.
Old mirrors have a particularly obscure past. If you take a picture of yourself or someone in it or near it, then the consequences can be the most unpredictable.
3. You can’t take pictures in bad places and abandoned buildings
Photographing in such places is almost always associated with a huge loss of vitality and often provides a permanent binding to this place, which gradually reduces the energy strength of a person.
4. You can’t take pictures in cemeteries
Practitioners and psychics do not advise anyone to contact the world of the dead. If a person is photographed in a cemetery, he can easily get an energy binding to this place. As a result, a person can fall seriously ill, up to death.
5. You can not store photos of the dead along with photos of the living
As a result of such "interaction", the energy is mixed up, and living people can feel bad.
6. You can’t take pictures of seriously ill people and people on the verge of death
Such photos are nothing but guides to the world of spirits. When a person dies, his soul is not free to leave because the photograph will keep him alive in the world.
7. You can't destroy photos
Do not tear, damage, burn the photo or pierce it with needles. Such manipulations are done with a photo when pointing damage to death. If you repeat them, then the person in the photo may be harmed.
8. You can not make your photos public
If you assume that there are people who may wish you harm, you should not put your photos on public display. In today's world with the prevalence of social networks, finding a fresh photo of a person is absolutely no problem.
People who care about their safety either do not put their photos on the network at all, or reduce their number to a minimum.
9. You can not be photographed with a watch
This is a bad omen, according to which, there is very little left for a person in this world.
Often in various horror films, ghosts are captured in the pictures. But where did the directors get this idea from? Do photographs really have more power than we used to think? Let's find out!
Why photos can be dangerous:
Many of you have probably watched horror films or documentaries about how ghosts are displayed in photographs. There are many scientific theories about this. The main one says that at the moment of photographing, for a split second, the world of the dead and the world of the living lose their border. It is not entirely known whether ghosts can influence us in this way.
Here the opinions of experts are divided: someone says that the ghosts in the photographs are just a reflection of the invisible, otherworldly, and someone claims that this is the very moment when evil spirits can burst into our world. This moment is enough to get sick or bind negative energy to yourself.
Church ministers and esotericists had a negative attitude towards photography immediately after the advent of cameras. It seemed strange to people that some kind of box makes an instant picture of what is happening. After a while they began to appear strange pictures with incomprehensible faces and figures. Then people realized that they had invented a kind of bridge between the world of good and the world of evil.
Of course, today few people are ready to give up memorable pictures because of simple superstition. However, there are a few things to be aware of before picking up a camera.
So, what can not be photographed:
Sleeping people are not allowed to be photographed. This is especially true for infants and young children in general, as they are the most vulnerable. Their souls are pure and immaculate, so they will be the best place for a haven for evil spirits. Open eyes can always protect you from demons, because you can see them, and they are almost powerless if you look at them. It is better for these entities to remain in the shadows, to be invisible, so they live next to sleeping people, but cannot influence them. At the moment of taking a photo, you erase the line, giving demons and ghosts access to human energy. Of course, few of them are aggressive, but why take the risk?
You can not photograph the reflection in the mirror. In most cultures and religions, the mirror is described as a magnet for evil spirits. This is a kind of negative accumulator, a portal between us and the ghosts. This is especially true of two mirrors that create an infinite reflection. In no case should you take pictures of this, because at this moment you are in close proximity to everything related to spirits and their world. It is important to remember here that not only the moment itself is dangerous, but also photography, since this portal between worlds can be transferred. It retains its power, so throw away such photos without hesitation.
You can't take pictures of the dead. This is a very common sign that says that this way you can make the soul of the deceased lose peace forever. His spirit will live in the place where the body was. If it was an angry soul, then strange things will happen in the house. If you do take such a photo, keep it separate from other photos.
Black cats are not allowed to be photographed. Yes, cats cleanse the energy of the house. They are our friends and very sweet creatures, but they can be easily possessed. Photographing sleeping black cats and cats is doubly dangerous, because, as we have already explained, demons interact better with the sleeping body during photography. Cats are not protected, so they are easily influenced by otherworldly forces.
You can not take pictures against the background of the ruins, ruins and abandoned houses. There energy is negative. It is transmitted in the photo and infects the whole house with failures. It is advisable not to take such photos, but if you still decide, then keep them in non-residential premises such as a garage, attic and do not put them in plain sight.
Lastly, remember a few important rules: do not give your photos to those who are in a bad relationship with you, or those who are associated with these people, so that you do not have damage. In this regard, it is better to hide your photos in in social networks giving access only to relatives and friends. Also, do not have photos of those who hate you or whom you hate at home.
Many people prefer to purchase high-quality photographic equipment used to photograph various sights, relatives and even strangers. Often such actions cause a negative reaction from other citizens. Therefore, every photographer should figure out whether it is possible to photograph a person without his consent. It also takes into account which places it is not allowed to photograph at all, where it is allowed to use a photo and what are the consequences of violating the law.
Basic Rules
The legislation of the Russian Federation has Art. 152.1 of the Civil Code, which refers to the protection of photographs of a citizen. It specifies all the rules related to the creation of a photo. The law, which prohibits photographing people without their consent, indicates that in order to take a photo, you must first obtain permission from the model. Although some points in this legislative act are considered not too unambiguous.
The Law on Photographing People Without Their Consent states that these photos may not be made public or used for any purpose without the permission of the people in the image. If the model dies, then consent must be obtained from his heirs represented by parents, spouses or children. In this case, is it allowed to photograph a person without his consent? Taking photos is allowed, but it is not allowed to use them for distribution or other purposes.
When is the law broken?
The law prohibiting photographing people without their consent will be violated in situations:
- The photographer publishes the images, so they can be accessed by unauthorized persons in unlimited quantities. According to the decision of the Supreme Court No. 25, disclosure is represented by actions that involve the provision of access to a photo by publishing it in various public sources, for example, in the media or the Internet.
- Use of photos for other purposes. For example, they may be reproduced or sold, displayed at public events, or recycled. Even importing originals or duplicating them are all actions that require consent from the people in the image.
In all of the above situations, permission from the model is required. Many citizens are sure that it is impossible to photograph people without their consent. Article 152.1 of the Civil Code indicates only that it is not allowed only to use these images.
In what situations can images be used without consent?
Filming a person without their consent is a permitted activity in most cases. However, there are even some cases when you can use the resulting images. These exceptions come in three varieties.
All these situations are prescribed in Art. 152.1 of the Civil Code.
Photos are used in the interests of the state or society
When answering the question of whether a person can be photographed without his consent, you can confidently answer in the affirmative. However, these images must be used with care. If the photo shows a public figure represented by the President, a well-known politician or a singer, then such photos can be distributed without fear that the photographer will be held accountable. This does not require the consent of a public person.
This is due to the fact that such citizens are significant figures for society and history as a whole, therefore they must be tolerant of interest in their person from other citizens. Therefore, their photos can be published in different sources.
Additionally, photographing people without consent is allowed if it is in the public interest, for example:
- the need for citizens to detect or disclose the threat posed to democracy;
- prevention of danger to the public or environment;
- solving various crimes.
It is necessary to correctly distinguish between images that can be useful to society, from those that do not carry any important information state and citizens.
Why can't people be photographed without their consent? This is due to the fact that the privacy of people is violated. Even in relation to public figures, it is allowed to make images of them in the course of their work, but personal life must remain inviolable. Persons who are not engaged in public activities should not be specifically photographed for the subsequent use of the image for profit or distribution for other purposes.
The photographs were obtained as a result of shooting public places
Usually, images of various events and sights are taken, which leads to the fact that other people are inadvertently captured in these photos. In this case, their rights are not violated. Without caution, you can take pictures of places:
- open to the public;
- various public events represented by concerts or competitions, congresses or exhibitions.
You can use such images for any purpose, even for distribution. But at the same time, it is not allowed for an outsider to be completely placed on the entire photograph. The exception is the situation when the photograph was taken intentionally, and a specific person was purposefully captured, which can be quite easily understood from the photo.
If mass pictures are taken, it is desirable to obtain the consent of at least one person. If he allows you to use this image for any purpose, then you do not need to take permission from others. An exception will be the situation when the picture contains data about the personal life of citizens.
A man specially posed for a certain reward
In such a situation, a person acts as a model, therefore, independently agrees to create an image and receive payment for it. To prevent future disagreements, it is recommended to take a receipt from him, which indicates the information:
- F. I. O. of the model;
- the amount that was paid to the person for posing;
- the date the photograph was taken and the funds paid;
- location of the photo session;
- Full name and other information about the photographer;
- model signature.
It is with the help of such a receipt that the photographer can protect himself in the future from various claims or even litigation.
If the photographs themselves act as a payment for the model, then these relations are also not free of charge, therefore, a receipt is again drawn up that the model received payment in kind.
If the model is represented by a minor citizen, then the receipt is drawn up by his official guardians.
The man posted his photos on the Internet
In such a situation, he independently makes his images publicly available. Even in this case, unauthorized persons do not have the right to use these photographs for their own purposes without obtaining the consent of the owner.
An exception will be the situation if the photos are posted on sites whose rules state that all uploaded files can be used by the administration or other users for any purpose.
What form does the permission take?
Filming a person without their consent is prohibited for the purpose of disseminating images, unless it falls under the exceptions. At the same time, the photographer often needs to take a photo of a certain citizen. In this case, you will have to take his consent to this process. It may be presented orally or in writing.
Consent is represented by a certain transaction, and it is perfect if both parties behave in such a way that the expression of their will is clearly visible. An example would be when a person is being interviewed on camera. In this case, he verbally agrees to participate in the filming, so he will not be able to create obstacles in the future for the use of this video.
It is forbidden to take pictures of people without their consent for further distribution of the photo, so many people take advantage of this situation. They may verbally allow their photos to be taken, but then file a lawsuit in order to recover a penalty from the photographer or achieve other goals. Therefore, it is desirable to form such consent in writing, since such a document will act as a means of protecting the photographer.
When compiling such a document, it is allowed to include various conditions in it, for example, it indicates how the images will be used, how they will be made public, and often even sets a period of time during which the photo can be used.
Shooting in public places
Is it possible to photograph a person without his consent if the photos are taken in various restaurants, hotels or other similar establishments? If the main goal is to capture the situation or different objects, and people only accidentally fall into the frame, then this is a legitimate activity on the part of the photographer.
Owners of different public institutions may establish different rules, which all visitors must follow, but they do not have the right to prohibit filming, as such prohibitions are against the law.
Taking a photo outdoors
It is possible to photograph a person without his consent if he accidentally enters the frame on the street during the shooting process. At the same time, the citizen himself should not be the central figure in the image, since otherwise he can prove that he was the main goal of the photographer.
If a person stands on the image with his back or side, and also does not perform any actions that are personal, then he will not be able to make a claim to the photographer.
Shooting objects of strategic importance
Such structures include military installations, the location of which should be secret for citizens of other countries. Their destruction or capture may affect the course of various military operations, therefore it is forbidden to distribute photographs depicting these structures. They can be counted:
- airfields or aviation bases;
- naval bases;
- warehouses intended for the storage of nuclear weapons;
- seaports;
- political objects of significant size and significant significance;
- large industrial centers;
- nodes of the power supply system.
People should not be photographed against the background of these objects, as this process is prohibited by law enforcement agencies.
Where can't shoot?
It is not allowed to take pictures of people in different institutions, which include:
- the State Duma, and each person who visits this organization should not bring with him any equipment with which you can take photos or videos;
- courts or correctional facilities;
- objects belonging customs service;
- on the territory or in buildings owned by Gosstroy, the Ministry of Fuel and Energy or Rostransnadzor;
- near the border of the country, as the permission of the head of the border department of the FSB is required for shooting.
For violation of these rules, the owner of the equipment can be held not only administrative, but even criminally liable, since the dissemination of photographs taken by him can cause significant damage to the state or society.
Penalties for violations
Is it legal to photograph a person without their consent? This process is illegal on the part of the photographer if the shooting is not in public place and further plans to distribute pictures. The purposeful creation of a photo of a specific person, which will then be used on the Internet or in the media, is a violation of the law, therefore, different measures of responsibility may be applied to such a photographer.
If he does not use the received images for any purpose, then it will be impossible to make any claims against him. If they are used for distribution, sale or other purposes, then the person depicted in the picture can go to court. AT statement of claim he indicates that his life or health, as well as personal property, was intentionally harmed.
A photographer for such violations can be held not only administrative, but even criminally liable, as it violates the inviolability privacy another citizen.
Various legal acts are used to hold accountable:
- Art. 137 of the Criminal Code. It describes the possibilities for violating a person's privacy. Therefore, if information about a person's private life is illegally collected or used for any purpose without his consent, this leads to a fine of 200 to 500 minimum wages. Such punishment may be replaced by the income of a citizen received within two or five months. Often appointed and compulsory work for a period of 120 to 180 hours. Additionally, correctional labor for up to 1 year may be applied. If there is evidence of a significant violation of human rights, an arrest for up to 4 months can be imposed at all. At the same time, the plaintiff will have to prove in court that the photographer really revealed his personal or family secret, distributed images without his consent, showed them publicly or only to a limited circle stakeholders, as well as use them for selfish purposes to obtain certain benefits.
- Art. 151 GK. It indicates the possibility to recover compensation for non-pecuniary damage from the photographer if the distribution of photos and shooting without the consent of the person is proved. The law of the Russian Federation takes into account that it is important to prove not only the presence of photos, but also their use for personal gain. The distribution of images can cause moral harm to citizens, so they are subjected to moral suffering. In this case, such damage is compensated by a monetary payment. When calculating this compensation, the degree of harm caused, the fault of the offender and other important circumstances are taken into account. The degree of human suffering is considered, for which its individual characteristics are studied.
- Art. 11.17 of the Code of Administrative Offenses. It describes the violation of the rules of human behavior on different modes of transport. If people take pictures on board an aircraft or water transport, as well as in a railway train, then this is a punishable action, for which a fine of 100 rubles is imposed. Additionally officials photographs taken will be confiscated.
Thus, having figured out whether a person can be photographed without his consent or not, each photographer will responsibly approach the creation of different pictures. The need to obtain consent is taken into account if the citizen becomes the central figure in the picture. Making images is allowed, but using them for any purpose is prohibited. If the photos are stored in the family archive, then their owner will not be held liable in any way. If they are distributed in the media or the Internet, then this may become the basis for bringing a citizen even to criminal liability.
