There are numerous locales here that won't allow it . . . usually because
it blocks access to something, or clogs up pedestrian traffic, or creates a
"trip hazard."  Under those conditions, a monopod is better than nothing at
all.  I also look for solid objects on which to brace the camera . . .
sometimes with my hand or a "bean bag" between the body/lens and whatever
I'm bracing it against.

I've also had a couple occasions in which the use of a tripod results in a
"prima facie" assumption the user of it is a professional doing "stock" or
"commercial" work.
