Abstract
It is pointed out that there exists an unambiguous definition of locality that enables one to distinguish local and nonlocal quantities. Observables of both types coexist in quantum optics but one must be very careful when attempting to measure them. A nonlocal observable which formally depends on the spatial position $\bi r$ cannot be {\em locally} measured without disturbing the measurements of this observable at all other positions.
