I quote the following regulation from http://ift.tt/1mXwRnW
Yep, when you tell your kids to turn around so you can take their photograph, you're committing a federal crime.
This all comes about from a brew of the anti-deficiency act and the requirement placed on parks to self-fund some uses.
Note, there's no "commercial" in there, and there is no extraction from context. The words are plain, clear, and directly quoted.
We all know when this started, and now the Forest Service is proposing to fine people $1000/frame for commercial photography unless they get a permit that costs a lot of money.
You can see that at: http://ift.tt/1vjvwXI
Now, this is for commercial use only, but it amounts to making published photography of, say, illegal logging, a crime in and of itself unless somebody wanted to give you a permit for that. The article argues that a permit costs $1500. I don't have any solid backup for that, and I'm a bit suspicious. That would be commensurate with seriously intrusive permits involving many people from other venues, which is not so abusive. It is abusive for one person on a public trail.
