| I do it on occasion if no one is around, but I always feel like there is something wrong about doing it....Thoughts or opinions? |

I'm always uncomfortable in such situations.
Here's one guy who isn't (and it's an interesting site):

I'm the same. I also normally have a quick glance around at the locals to see if anyone's taking pictures so that I don't cause offense. More often than not there's at least someone taking pictures using their camera phone of ���� or ��� posing with that antiquated peace sign, so I start clicking. |

umm, it's usually the big button on the top.
Interesting question, I normally feel uncomfortable doing it, as they seem like places you should show respect- but when you're in there trying to be quiet and dignified only to hear some ajummas in full hiking gear come bustling through the door talking in their regular shouty voices, it breaks the magic.
So I do, but only with the flash off.

I do sometimes.
But if anyone is praying inside I would never do it, just out of respect for their beliefs and their private time. |
