Intellectual Property Refusal [was: Help]
My photos were refused because of "INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY" in London. This is wrong? Photos taken in a public space ---
Freedom of Panorama. In the UK, there is a specific defence to copyright infringement (known as "Freedom of Panorama") covering some uses of the London skyline. Section 62 CDPA allows third parties to take photographs or make films incorporating buildings or other works of artistic craftsmanship that are permanently situated in public places or premises that are open to the public. Similarly, third parties can broadcast a visual image of these buildings and communicate such photographs to the public without permission from the copyright owner.
