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.

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'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'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'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.

Anyway, what's in the show? * In the news, we discuss the climate camp, the various 'Not a Terrorist' campaigns & Spike Brown's appearance on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square, the breach of copyright by mainstream media using pictures from social networking sites, the Guardian'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're running a competition, on the theme of 'Freedom'.  James thinks the theme should be 'This is what happened just before I got arrested for taking a photo!'.
