technically thats not so - under the 1949, 1968 , and 2000 access acts being on a public right of way only gives you the right to freely pass and repass by the permitted means. It does not give you the right to do anything else including take pictures - these activities would be covered by whatever bylaw covers the land through which the footpath passes.
