Very professional and legalistic composition.  Kelby training, as was mention by someone earlier in this discussion,  has a very good lesson on U.S. copyright rights and procedures. - EdM

It makes you want to cry, sometimes....scream at others.
As if, with the state of the nation, they have nothing else to do with their time.

Am I glad that my professional career is coming to an end?

A similar law was proposed recently for music copyright and revenues. Performing artists are up in arms.

This is all part of the 'pressures' exerted by big business on government.

What is required is some rioting (non-destructive but disruptive) in the streets.
Not targeted at shops but at corporate HQs of big multinationals, merchant banks (not high street) and insurance companies. Serious reform is required but it wont happen without agitation.

Until major disruption occurs the politicians dont care a tinkers cuss. Of course in UK the best time would be in the next three weeks as this causes maximum embarrassment and disruption to the government. In USA I suggest late October, just before the elections.

Unfortunately most people have their eyes too close to the grindstone to pay all the debt they have incurred rather than raising their eyes.

Not to be a wet blanket, but the first question is how did he get your images??? I am assuming that they are from someone's wedding, shot previously to you brothers.

How did he get your images??? Could both of you have shot the same images at another wedding, say standing side by side???

Just curious???

:seesaw:

That's a very good point Ray. Two years ago, we were in Alaska along with a professional wildlife photographer from the Czech republic. When we got home, we went to his website and looked at the photos he took at the same time we were photographing. There were some which were identical to our captured images. No copyright imfringement, just similarites in time, place, and angles. - EdM

When I was a Wedding shooter, several times I had Aunt Matilda, catch the same image, that I shot. The worse part is when she caught the Bride  with both her eyes open and I didn't :-(

:doh:

I asked that question ( as yet unanswered) several posts back.

I suspect it would have to be a big coincidence that HE as an 'off-duty' wedding photographer happened to be standing next to Andy 'on-duty' as a wedding photographer to take the identical shot.

Most wedding snappers I know would have chatted to the working shooter ...if only to tell him (annoying though it is) that he too was a 'pro'.



Nice to see you posting again Ray. Where you been hiding?
