Why forbid photography pictures with flash?

[Konstantin]

It could and write. They say not to flash. But it's just different. At the Pushkin Museum can take in the permanent exhibition and can not be in the coming exhibitions.

This practice often. In the New York Museum of Modern Art can also be fotkal in the permanent exhibition (where the masterpiece of a masterpiece), and in the halls with imported exhibitions (individual or partnership museum) - it is impossible. Specifically the hands not crash, but will be asked to do so (it is important to have time to make a few shots. Here everything is clear: there is the wish of the owner and commercial reasons - buy a catalog for $ 30 and see. Version with the presence of technological reasons therefore not Gil.

in the Berlin Museum have banned pictures of Nefertiti bust

Berlin Neues Museum (Neues Museum) February 18 completely banned photography in the hall, where the famous bust of Queen Nefertiti, because of fears for the safety of the paint coating sculpture. It is reported by Earth Times.
A spokesman for the museum said that earlier bust was allowed to photograph, but the rules for visitors are prohibited from use in this outbreak. Total ban on photography had to be introduced due to the fact that tourists are ignoring the rules of the museum. Shooting the bust of Nefertiti from the outbreak had been banned since the museum feared that it could damage suffered in a stone image of an ancient layer of paint.

According to the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation, the Fund, which supports the work of the museum, yet it is not known whether the flash of digital cameras have a negative impact on the contained in a colorful layer of pigments, so the ban is a precautionary measure rather than a necessity.

Scientists estimate the age made of limestone and covered with a plaster bust of the Egyptian queen in 3300 years. Presumably it was made by sculptor Tutmos in 1345 BC. In 1912 he was discovered and later left the country a German archaeologist Ludwig Borchardt. The Egyptian authorities have long been trying to return the sculpture, but the German side rejects any claims concerning the ownership bust.

Graphic typically exhibits not suspended, only at the shows, with special lighting. Who thinks that we use the spec. Glass, he is mistaken, it is expensive for museums. I believe that the museum "prohibitions" - is such a mental disease, from which even the left "wall" is difficult to get rid of. And inside the "walls" they (the bans) give a sense of its overvalued those who watch over their execution.
 fish, probably because of outbreaks by the end of the day receive the "convulsions". .

Why classical work in the museum take on debilnik or a bar of soap? This is akin to someone in the theater does not disable debilnik and all seemed to love to talk, or students who are running podcast as a monkey and then show each other. " In the museum are for impressions, not podcast. The museum must work the eyes and brain, not a camera. In places of worship and museums, a person must join, tune. But modern works and installation of photographs even need . They're in most of the time and sooner or later will be unmounted and will be in rubble.

Why pigments fade in the light-clear - light - is the flow of energy, especially short-wave ultraviolet-t e, and causes chemical reactions, especially oxidation by atmospheric oxygen.
And what is the spectral composition of the flash do not know. And if the room has windows, what ultraviolet light gets through them on film. List of stable pigments is very low, ocher, chromium dioxide, cadmium. All the others change their color at different rates depending on hundreds of reasons. Light may be one of them.
Normal glass prevents most ultraviolet light. Monna Lisa for such a glass, that there is no UV does not pass.

This comes from stupidity or, say softer from lack of qualifications photographed. Many people do not switch off the flash (do not know how to do this?) And "lupyat" it even where it is disadvantageous for the quality of shooting. Was at a conference where on the screen for projecting slides, and the hall was in darkness. So the Japanese researchers (!) Retake the image on the screen with flash! When I told one that besides a white screen he does not work, he began to ask me to disable it flash on his camera - he did not know how!

Actually the flash (it depends on the capacity and the manufacturer) has a range of more UV component than the daylight, indeed, that may harm the paint. But normal photographer and will not use the flash, even if it can be: an outbreak severely distorts the color, makes a strong glare inherent in the reflection, and sometimes the images get the circular bright spots from the flash light scattered at close to the lens particles of dust floating in the air. Therefore, in low light is always better to shoot with a tripod. Here too the problem: for some reason, just a tripod, it is supposedly a professional photography and a lot where prohibited. In the Church of Our Savior on Ilyina (Novgorod), I had to go to the ruse, and tell the staff member: "I've got an amateur stand, do not you see?" You do, of course, know how to look professional tripods ...", then I was allowed to shoot . And in Berlin, in Nikolaikirche and this number is not passed, had to remove the "amateur" three-legged tripod. But then I got a chain tripod - this caused a public curiosity, but the shooting is not prohibited, but only walked behind me. But in West Germany in the ancient church to shoot with a tripod you can, but the flash can not. And in Sweden - a take off on a tripod anywhere and anything, but with the flash - almost nowhere to be.

So if a ban on flash and there is a certain sense, the ban on a tripod, I do not see any other reason except zhlobstva.

Amateur, Tibetan monks goon?

It is absolutely incomprehensible why ask your question in a general way. I have not spoken Tibetan monks do not know how you respond. I can only assume that among them, as among any people, normal, apparently, a majority. It is possible that goon also sometimes come across ...

in the UK either in museums or exhibitions are not allowed to rent or with the flash or without flash, but usually at each museum, the exhibition is a shop, stall where you can buy postcards, photographs, directories prozivedeniyami probably the main cause .
In Belgium, you even asked to leave the bag in the luggage
