When I am not out on my Fazer, i am often out on my mountain bike with my camera. I entered this shot in a competition for county council tourist company Visit Kent. Photo of friends cycling on isle of Sheppey.
Could I request that as many of you as possible click on my photo on the Visitkent page and click like on the photo. You have to click on the photo in order to like it to like it on the Visitkent page. Thanks :)

Did you read the terms and conditions before entering?
It's the usual rights grab, Visit Kent has just got itself a nice wee photo library, free of charge, available to them for full commercial use indefinately.
Visit Kent can go fuck themselves. So no I will not be pressing 'like' on your photo.

I love photograhy but I hate photo rights grabs. Photo competition my fucking arse it is.
I put a comment on their facebook page.
I also hate publishers who e-mail me, we’d like to use your photo in……… blah blah blah…….of course we’ll credit you………blah blah blah………and we’ll send you a copy of the book/magazine/paper/link to the article etc etc………. blah blah blah……… pish pish pish.
I send them a quote, 8/10 times you never hear from them again.

My nephew has just been notified by a well known outdoors pursuits clothing manufacturer, that they have inadvertently used one of his photographs in an advert in a magazine.
He is I believe in talks with them and lawyers about how they inadvertently removed his Copy right protected stamp? on said photograph, could get interesting.

At least they have owned up Lew.
It can happen.
Also how did they get hold of a copy of high enougth quality for magazine work? Or were they using it quite small?

That is a bit weird. Should just be a matter of agreeing a price though. If they have put their hands up presumably they want to put things right.
If agreement can't be reached there shouldn't be any need to waste time and money on lawyers, if he's based in the UK, it's just a matter of going through the smalls claims court process (England,Wales, Scotland and I assume Northern Ireland all have similar processes). Total cost is 40 quid which you get back when you win.
And of course all sorts of organisations from Visit Kent, charities, commerical companies etc etc hoover up photo rights and build their own free image libraries to use as they please through these so called photo competitions.
If you are are approcahed for use of an image and don't have a clue what to ask for;

the limit on small claims is £5-10K depending on if it goes through in England or Scotland. Maybe he is after a bigger payout :pokefun
