I intend to take some photos at night using one or two fairly powerful flashguns so that I can highlight bushes and trees on my property. So what I am asking is "is there anything to stop me?" Only thing I can think of is an environmental issue.
Has anyone had any experience doing this?

I guess the first question is where are you and how far away from roads or local community are you? The council will probably be able to tell you about by laws etc

bye the way Steve I know Epsom very well Used to live in North Cheam and Sutton before that. I was actualy born in Sutton. I worked for BT for about 25 years in the Epsom and surrounding area. At least those 4/5 mental hospitals have gone, worked in most of the from time to time. point of interest you may not Know. thje old racecourse grandstand is suppopsed to be haunted. there are artesian well underneath and during WW2 canadians were billited there, A couple supposedly fell into one of the wells before they were capped . also a couple of other places supposed to be haunted bit of a story. Ome of my workmates
was late finishng an installation and going downstrairs a woman dessed as in the 1800's passed him by and said nothing. Late on he was told that was the ghost that haunted the place. On the Ewell roundabout there used to be a garden centre. Every morning the light bulbs were out of the lamps and placed on the furniture overnight.
One time I had to install a wall phone in the morgue in Epsom Hospital it was one that worked by pushbutton rare back then .OH yes I know a lot about Epson. Got many stories of working in Epsom. This was at least 35/40years ago

That is what concerned me why I asked I appreciate your reply thank you The flashguns have a GN170. classification No issue using during daylight hours but night time is something else. I had similar from a house behind ours who had security floodlights installed which lit up on of our back bedrooms , it was left on all night for weeks/months at a time. I did tell them in the end
that quote does not actually cover flashguns directly I read the paper in that link
