Hi, I'm on the very early stage of planning. First of all, I'm wondering if I need the original permit to get into Tibet or would a photo copy of the permit be sufficient? And is photography allowed inside the Potala Palace and the temples? Are Tibetan open to tourists taking their photo?

As far as I know, a photo copy will be fine. If you haven't been to Tibet, you won't have the full picture of what is going on there. Many of the Tibetans had never actually seen westerners before, so they don't always enjoy being photographed. In many temples (including the Potala Palace) you are not allowed to take pictures at all.
