What's with this new legislation hoo ha! Seen it mentioned on other sites but that was more about restrictions on work uploaded to online auction sites, anyway, this is a super pastel landscape Mick with your bright and boisterous use of colours, love the leaning fence!

Thanks for the visit and comment Ros. The legislation is designed to allow picture researchers to get free images froim the Internet. They only need to make a quick search (the proposals, suggest a dilligent search; however, there is no legislation of how dilligent) to find the copyright owner, if they 'can't' they are free to use whatever image is the root of their search. It has been debated by artists and photographers for a long time, especially posting stuff on sites that strip exif data from images, it is a 'hoo ha to be taken seriously. It may be flattering to have your work used, until you realise that there is no acknowlegement or payment, you have worked hard for any Tom, Dick, or Harry to steal your work and get it for free.
