- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
I keep a few copies of that in my bag as well.
For some, that is always an option. But, I guess I'm genetically wired a different way. I don't defy authority just to do it, but I will defy those who think they have authority, especially when I know I am in the right.
A few months back, I was taking pics of Fifth/Third field (local AAA Reds baseball stadium in Dayton) when two rent-a-cops came across the street telling me I can't take pics because it is a trademarked building...I told them BS. Only the owner of the copyright can enforce that, and ONLY if I am attempting to make a profit from said photos. I am perfectly in my right to take personal pics from a public place. They went back in, called the cops, and after about 10 minutes of talking with the kind officers, they agreed with me and I even got a "have a nice day".......
Somebody wasn't too happy....:greenpbl:
I'd just move on. There are other buildings.
