Thank you for your well thought out response. Yes, the FAA is dealing with a very gray area here with intent. They are mainly thinking, so it seems, that it will be clear cut as to intent when sending a drone into the air.

Meta4,
Don’t waste your time responding to this guy. He will never understood and has some chip on his shoulder to deal with.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to answer my question without attacking my integrity.
ac0j, I am not a working professional photographer, I used to be one...
Well I have a job that takes be across the country most of the year so I get to see a lot of different locals. Each place I end up I enjoy photographing what I see and so have numerous drives worth of images and wayyyyyy to many shots on my iPhone. With the small amount of drone shots compared...
Oh, it’s not my gallery, never said it was. I have a few fine art images I shot years ago hanging for sale here and there from when I was shooting professionally. I had a past client see my not for sale drone images in an on line gallery I post some daily images from my travels in and inquired...
You don’t get it, do you?
It’s the way you replied, not your answers.
If I can’t sell the shots I’ve taken because of the law as it is stated/written, so be it. I’ll just shoot more. If I can, great! Maybe someone else will like to have my work on their wall shot over the past 5 months or...
Nope
I take photos every day with every mode possible and have been doing so for a long time. Cell phones, cameras, now drones. For my own enjoyment. Used to be professionally but now I have a different stable day job. Every once in a while I come across a photo worthy of being on a wall and if...
Selling photos is a commercial purpose. With my past photo businesses, I paid taxes on my sales and will continue to do so in the future. From what I read, hear and see from those who are photographers and drone pilots, no one really seems to know the answer.

That’s what I thought. Thank you. I would hate it if I was not able to sell work from before I was legal.
I have been talking with a local police officer, who is also a drone lover about using drones for police work and he said that once he gets his dept to ok drone use and I get my lic, we...
Yep... Yu understood my question
I was asking because some of the people who have been buying my photography from my fine art business have seen my drone work and were asking if I was going to be selling any. I like to know the law, not being told “well have you ever heard of anyone getting in...
What are you talking about? “Important as you”? Nice
Your attitude in answering my question was, well a bit “do what you want, I do and no one has gotten in trouble for it so far” and so my question to you. Badge of honor? What a joke. Being legal is what my question is all about.
I am asking...
Not a business anymore but I do have many images being sold as stock and many fine art images still in galleries and museums.
Just wanted to make sure I know what the edge of the rules are so I can legally enjoy shooting and offering my images for sale.
Thanks
Bruce
Nope, I do not. As with every law there needs to be a first time to enforce. I don’t want to be the first. I am a purely recreational flyer and I am also a photographer and shoot every time I fly. I do not run nor own nor work for a photography company but I have in the past and have numerous...
