Public buildings is a clear case, but I think the main

pictures of people.
Unless you want to commit a felony and stalk them, it's pretty much
impossible to get non-fair use images for small time actors who don't visit
premieres or award ceremonies.
I got a couple of pictures of minor celebrities (an actor and an
author; I also got a picture of an astronaut, but he already had a
better free picture so I didn't use it) that are now in Wikimedia
Commons and in the Wikipedia articles about those persons when they
and I both attended the Mensa World Gathering earlier this year. You
don't necessarily have to be a stalker to run into mildly-famous
people; just have a camera handy when you go to conventions and other
events of that sort.
