News, views and discussions about the Alexandra Park area. http://www.localmouth.com/go/alexandra-park-543.rss I've lived right next to Highgate Wood since 1968 and I've always appreciated its outstanding beauty. I went through the Wood today on my way to the Post Office to pick up a package and decided to take photos of the snow on the way. I took a photo of one of the pathways and there was a young man walking his dog coming towards me as I took the shot. I wasn't interested in him; I just wanted a nice picture. He was extremely aggressive towards me when he reached me, stating that I should have asked his permission to take his photograph. He then called me a "rude fat bast**d". I am overweight but I consider myself generally to be a polite person and I'm sure my parents were married when they had me. I wasn't rude to him in any way. I had just taken a photo that happened to include him in the distance and maybe he considered that to be rude. Has anyone else had any bad experiences while taking photos in Highgate?
