Competition Rules

Sorry George and Hefty, how on earth could I mix the both of you up

It's a long time ago you mention that Hefty, it was about the neckstrap of the camera and that you never used it since someone can pull you out of balance very easily by that.
Went about theft or something down that line.

Sorry I've the tendency to remember those stupid little details

Btw about the law, it's just so strange to read George and that English isn't my first language doesn't help

I don't know what you mean with S. 2 & S. 10 George.
Do you mean.

That looks only positive of the artist in my eyes.

And 10 is about “work of joint authorship" and I don't know what you want to do with that?

Then there's another ex-doorman in our midst - the sort of places I worked at I'd have never have dreamed of taking a camera with me...

Oh no you didn't said that.
It was an conversation about how someone could steal a camera from you and some said that they wear it safe around their neck and you gave a comment that you worked like a doorman and know how to wrestle someone... or around that line and that it was very easy to unbalance someone if they would pull on the camera around your neck.

You're quite right Hefty it was Don

I think I'm getting old

Stefan,

This is how I understand it.

The owner of the copyright in a work of art will normally be the buyer, not the artist. But it will depend on the terms of the sale.

In the case of reproducible art, like photographs, the author will often retain some of the copyright.

The artist is always the author, and has certain permanent rights. But they are fairly limited.

If I sell tickets to a public event which will feature the burning of Tracey E's bed, then she has a right to object, and a right to sue me for damage to her reputation. But I am not committing an offence - the police cannot stop me. It's purely a civil matter.

I, of course, would counter-claim that it was all good publicity for her. Which would be true.

PS: Your doing very well. That Act is not an easy read.

You'll be needing a new girlfriend, then.

I used the same trick with the velcro ties - you'd barely get a week go past when somebody didn't try to grab you round the throat so I can see why it put him off straps

mhmm okay I can go with that thought flow of yours.

My girl still says she loves me so won't be looking for a new one.

Hefty it's a profession I couldn't do so I admire you.
Do you use a neck-strap with your camera btw?

If nothing else, this conversion demonstrates how our legal draftsmen can keep battalions of well-paid lawyers in business. Doormen, on the other hand, can be your friend. I remember once in London many years ago being allowed in to Stringfellows nightclub wearing a Canadian logger's mackinaw jacket and rather scruffy trousers. The doormen obviously knew a man of quality when they saw one and probably assumed I was a rich eccentric. They might have been right about the eccentric bit.
