ADVENTURE SILHOUETTES for More Marketable Imagery – Charlie Borland:
“There are times when we can create simpler photographs that tell a strong
story and silhouettes are easy way to do that. They can tell just as
effective of a story, set a mood, or create mystery and it’s those
storytelling images that buyers of imagery look for when licensing images.
What’s different is these images are adventure images and add the human
Element, a proven ingredient of top selling images.”

track to pass a law before Fashion Week in September regulating work

would require such things as chaperones on set, tutors on set, consent forms
for nudity, no 16-plus-hour days and access to meals.” SOURCE:

$7,500? Are These Photos Art or Privacy Invasion? – Lauren Margolis:
“Celebrities might be used to it, but most city dwellers don’t expect
unknown photographers to take photos through the windows of their homes –
and then sell prints at prices upwards of $7,500. And yet that’s what New

shot with a telephoto lens into the apartments of NYC’s TriBeCa
neighborhood.

1815 June 11th – Julia Margaret Cameron was born in Calcutta, India. She taught herself photography at age 48 and began exhibiting her work one year later. Cameron was one of the first to experiment with soft focus portraits, to achieve a more expressive image. She bucked criticism of their approach from her peers, who thought she lacked understanding of sharp focus. She stuck to her guns, and today her style is emulated by many sensitive portraitists. Her subjects included Sir John Herschel, Alfred Tennyson and Charles Darwin. Julia Cameron was inducted into the International Photography Hall of Fame in 1984.

YOU VEELL PAY UP!
-- Settlement demand letter from Getty Images for copyright infringement – Bernard Charles: “Yesterday, I received a letter from Getty Images informing me of an unauthorized photo that was displayed on My Inspiration Network. I readily removed the photo and sent the company an email describing that the situation was not intentional. The settlement fee associated with this case is $400 due by June 20, 2013. This cost ensures you to pay your way out of being sued and you have 14 business days from the date on the letter. http://bernardtalks.com/2013/06/04/settlement-demand-letter-from-getty-images-for-copyright-infringement/
TAKEAWAY: GETTY goes after anyone, and will no doubt get $400 from Bernard if enough of his student friends donate. And if he doesn’t, what’s next for Bernard?



SOME INFRINGEMENT EXCUSES -- APHMember: Excuses for copyright infringement – aphphoto: In no particular order:
1. I just bought the web site. Take it up with the previous owner.
2. We're not using the image any longer so why should we pay for it?
3. You're not a legitimate business.
4. It's ridiculous to demand fees from people who use your image.
5. How do I know you took the picture?
6. It's on the internet so it belongs to anyone.
7. The Web Designer did it, I'm not responsible.
8. I gave you a credit line.
9. We left your watermark on there.
10. The photo was posted on Facebook, so maybe you should go after Facebook for payment. http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1304159
