Greedy Grrebe


Recommended Posts

Interesting photos, but one, in fact the main, reason, I rarely put photos on the Internet, especially without a copyright overlay, is that they can turn up in the most unexpected places, with no payment or credit. These grebe photos are also on this Korean website, but they'll never be paid for.

That is interesting, can you give me the link to the site please?

If you click on the link in my last post, you'll see the url of the grebe images in your browser's address bar.

 

That part of the url '20110114' seems to indicate that this is the date of the image.

 

I haven't been able to get into the site hosting the pictures, but daumcdn.net is registered in Seoul, according to this whois result

Hmmm I smell a pork pie

Why?

 

These photos have been published in two UK newspapers, The Sun and The Leicester Mercury, attributed to Mick Freakley. It is nothing new for photos that are published on the Internet to be 'harvested' and used in breach of copyright, which appears to have happened to Mr Freakley's images.

 

As someone who has had to resort to Court action to protect copyright, I was merely posting a caveat.
