that I took in the Chihuly Museum and Gardens in Seattle. While they allow people to take photos, there are signs that advise photos may only be taken for personal use and may not be sold. I have turned three of those photos into art pieces that are hanging on the walls of my home but have never posted those photos anywhere they could be grabbed and used for commercial purposes.
There were no signs on the side of the road in France advising that photos taken from the road could not be used for commercial purposes.
