If you are a fan of breaking the rules, sticking it to the man and all things forbidden you will love the idea behind Strictly No Photography – a photo-sharing site for photographs of things and places that are not allowed to be photographed.

From the inside of the Kremlin to Kensington palace, from art galleries to war zones. Here you can see everything you’ve ever wanted to see that you’re not supposed to. There are pictures that range from the ordinary to the profound. Whatever the content or the quality though we think that each one stands as a little piece of art in itself, as a little expression of personal liberty.

Cool effects but not sure I want to harm my beloved kit to duplicate them ;)
