There is NO expectation of privacy when you are in a public place. Just as you cannot prevent someone from looking at you, your home or your car, you cannot prevent them from taking a photo.
That is how the police can take photos of you as you walk down the street or the automatic teller machine can take your photo when you make a withdrawal.
Anyone can walk down your street and take photos of your home. Anything that can be seen from pubic property is fair game.

...Google Maps shows high-res satalite photos of your house from a top down view, why aren’t you protesting this aswell? A burglar can use this tool just as much as Street View. Infact Google Maps top down view is probably more helpful to burglars than Street View.
Virtual Earth provides not only overhead views, but "Bird Eye" views where you can rotate the image 360° to see all sides of the property in question. And the photos are usually taken in the winter when there are no leaves on the trees so you get an excellent look.
