A very belated Happy New Year to everyone from the PhotoLegal team.

In the news:

	* The decision by the European Court of Human Rights that Section 44 isn’t legal (http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/jan/12/stop-and-search-ruled-illegal)
	* PhotoLegal has a Flickr group. (http://www.flickr.com/groups/1333530@N23/) Some members of the team are happy. Others, and it isn’t tough to guess who, not so much.
	* Good news from the House of Lords on Section 17 of the Digital Economy Bill  (http://www.v3.co.uk/v3/news/2254386/lords-keen-remove-section)
	* And Copenhagen has the coolest cops in the world....

As many of you will know by now James has taken up photography and is annoyingly good (so far).  In light of this we decided to have a general beginners’ chat and help answer the queries of some less experienced photographers.  Or as we prefer to call it – James’s stupid questions.  Issues raised included the need for UV filters, captioning images and the imapct that captioning has on the perception of the images, lens choice and lighting.  Turns there’s no easy answer.

As promised – a link to the excellent blog of Will Burrard-Lucas (http://www.willbl.com/) and you can buy your Telegraph Charity Calendar (http://www.photobox.co.uk/landing/charitycalendar) – 25% off and the year is only 1/12th of the year through.....

	* In addition to this website, PhotoLegal has a twitter feed (http://twitter.com/photolegal/) (and a Flickr group http://www.flickr.com/groups/1333530@N23/ (http://www.flickr.com/groups/1333530@N23/) I suppose)
	* Darren Hector’s blog and website (http://www.canid.co.uk/) . He’s also on twitter (http://www.twitter.com/wildlifephotog)
	* Kate Day blogs at The Telegraph (http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/culture/author/kateday/) and on twitter (http://www.twitter.com/kate_day)
	* Phill Price posts a daily photo (usually of London) on his blog (http://www.phillprice.com/ (http://www.phillprice.com/)) and is also on twitter (http://www.twitter.com/phillprice) and friendfeed (http://friendfeed.com/phillprice).
	* James Barisic works for Everys (http://www.everys.co.uk/) Solicitors, and they’re both on twitter -James (http://www.twitter.com/jamesmb), Everys (http://www.twitter.com/i_legal)- and James also has a blog (http://jamesmb.blogspot.com/)

Welcome to our latest episode.  Even more technical gremlins meant that not only were we unable to broadcast live to the world, but we were also one presenter short.  James was unable to join us, possibly due to the &#039;Prince of Darkness&#039; messing around with his computer, or more likely, due to his beloved netbook deciding to pack up at the most inopportune moment.

In the news:

	* The Government plans to change copyright law and nationalise your pictures so they can give them to the nation.  WARNING: Those of a nervous disposition may wish to avoid - I&#039;m afraid I ranted just a little!
	* South Wales Police seem to think that phoning the employer of a photographer going about his lawful business and taking photos is an acceptable response
	* Although they want to give away your images to everyone for free, the Government doesn&#039;t seem so keen to give away the intellectual property of other categories.  Illegal file sharers will find their broadband cut off, and yet this unpoliceable system will most likely affect people whose broadband has been hijacked rather than those who are actually downloading illegal content - they&#039;ll just use a different connection!

Our main topic was wedding photography with guest Tim Collins of Plinkk Photography.  Issues included the perceived worth of wedding photography, the importance of good preparation, and interesting snippet of law regarding the wedding venue, and a guide to the different types of essential insurance.

		<description><![CDATA[The British Journal of Photography has today published the results of 46 freedom of information requests that they made to every police force in the UK asking if the force have requested authorisation to use S44 of the Terrorism Act 2000 to stop and search people without suspicion to prevent terrorism.

The exercise has revealed that every police force in the UK has requested use of the powers at some point, with the sole exception of Derbyshire.  Even more disturbing is the attitude of some forces to the request, including Cambridgeshire who even had the temerity to suggest that BJP itself could be a terrorist organisation!]]></description>

Well, that was an adventure!  Those of you who tuned in will know that we tried to broadcast this episode live, but despite our best efforts and a full test the day before, technical difficulties meant we had to abandon our efforts and record the show in the traditional way.  Every cloud has a silver lining because the recording quality is much better as a result of our efforts, and we&#039;ll look at what went wrong so we can bring you the next episode live on Thursday 17 September at 8.30pm.

Anyway, what&#039;s in the show?

	* In the news, we discuss the climate camp, the various &#039;Not a Terrorist&#039; campaigns &amp; Spike Brown&#039;s appearance on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square, the breach of copyright by mainstream media using pictures from social networking sites, the Guardian&#039;s new terms for Photographers. James is talking about Pirates.  Arr!
	* We answer a question relating to use of images taken on safari
	* In our main discussion we talk about rights-harvesting competitions and royalty-free photography.  James is talking about aliens travelling to earth and bringing knock-off Dire Straits CDs.
	* Please sign our petition (http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/PhotoCompetition/), to the Prime Minister, asking for action on rights-grabbing photo competitions
	* We&#039;re running a competition, on the theme of &#039;Freedom&#039;.  James thinks the theme should be &#039;This is what happened just before I got arrested for taking a photo!&#039;.

There are far easier ways to to do both than spending your days crawling through guano (which is outnumbered by, and far preferable to, the days you have to spend behind a desk).  No, the reason you become a wildlife photographer is to spend at least some of your days in the company of other species, preferably in their natural habitat.  It therefore goes without saying that the most important thing to any wildlife photographer worth their salt is not the image they're about to take, it's the welfare of the animal they are fortunate enough to be spending time with.]]></description>

They have published an 'Artists Bill of Rights' which sets out uses which they consider to be reasonable use of images entered into competitions and encourage competition organisers to write their terms and conditions to comply with it.]]></description>

In a first for PhotoLegal, on the last episode of the current series, No. 7 we enjoyed the company of a returning guest, Kate Day from the Daily Telegraph (http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/culture/author/kateday/) who joined us to answer your questions.  We also recorded this episode &#039;as live&#039; with no significant editing in preparation for the possibility of broadcasting the show as we record it from September which we&#039;re going to look into over the short break before we start the next series at the beginning of September.  That&#039;s providing we&#039;re not in jail, although Kate has agreed to post bail!

In the news:

	* Police fall foul of intellectual property law (PhotoLegal exclusive!)
	* National Portrait Gallery takes on a Wikipedia user for image theft
	* The British Journal of Photography launches a campaign against persecution of photographers by law enforcement agencies

We answered these questions:

	* Chris Westcott - what are reasonable actions a photographer can take to prevent illegal deletion of images by the police, and what should a photographer do if images are forcibly deleted?
	* Jason - Can a police officer confiscate a memory card?
	* Do you need a model or property release to take images of domestic or farm animals?
	* Paul - if someone refuses to sign a model release, am I obliged to delete the image?
	* Clive - what is HDR?
	* If a police officer suspects you of committing an offence, can they confiscate a memory card as evidence?
	* If I&#039;ve posted an image on a community site, then someone in one of the photos is convicted of a serious offence, should I take them down?
	* Images on my screen look different when viewed on another screen or when printed - why is this?

For this episode, we took a break from all the legal stuff and spoke with Stephen Johnson of Copyright Image (http://www.copyrightimage.com) about workflow and retouching.  Stephen formerly worked at Stone Images and Getty before setting up his own consultancy business.  We really enjoyed talking to him and there&#039;s a lot of information in this recording which will be useful to any photographer.

In the news, we talked about:

	* The House of Commons Home Affairs Select Committee reports on the G20 policing operation
	* A security guard at the Olympic stadium site in East London is alleged to have threatened a photographer with dogs
	* A blogger at the New York Times suggests that Flickr is a good place to harvest pictures for wallpaper
	* A photographer gets a terse email demanding he puts images back up on his website so that an infringer can continue stealing them!

We put listeners questions to Stephen Johnson

	* Paul: &quot;What constitutes changing an image?&quot;
	* Ian: &quot;How does one &#039;get into&#039; submitting pics to a subscription based online image library, such as Getty? What sort of images are accepted? What kind of ballpark return could you expect to get on each image sold?&quot;

Links:

	* The report of the Home Affairs Select Committee on the G20 Policing (http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200809/cmselect/cmhaff/418/41802.htm)
	* Phill&#039;s &#039;edit my photo&#039; project (http://www.phillprice.com/index.php/2009/04/21/edit-my-photo-project-results/)

Contacts:

	* Stephen can be contacted by email (mailto: stephen@copyrightimage.com) or you can send a short message to his skype username &#039;CopyrightImage&#039;
	* Darren can be found on twitter (http://twitter.com/wildlifephotog), at his wildlife photography blog (http://wildlifephotographer.blogspot.com) and on the Canid (http://www.canid.co.uk) website.
