  1. Well that is all fine and dandy, but I still doubt that THEY are getting everyone's permission to take the picture of someone else's property.

    Sooooo...some big supermarket chain might be upset that a picture of their truck has been copywrited by a photographer that then posts it on Hanks's.

    Hank's does enjoy a double standard...

    Under photographers rights you don't need to have permission to take photos of privately owned items such as vehicles on public property. you can even shoot photos of vehicles on private property as long as you are on public property. trains, trucks, ships and other commerce are fair game for photographers, UNLESS there are signs stating no photography.

    As far as copywriting a photo of company property that you have no legal of fiscal ties to, I can't see how thats possible, thats one for the lawyers.

    I carry a copy of the photographers rights under US law when I`m out and about.

  2. OK, I can kind of seeing where this is coming from..A few years ago there was an issue with certain parties taking photos from Hanks and claiming them as their own. I too was a victim of it, but I have over 1000 truck pics on Hanks, Flickr, photo bucket, this site and many more so if I was worried about someone using it they would still be on my pc instead of on the web.. Every photo I post on this board was taken by me..I don't do it for money, it`s a hobby, I don't put a stamp on it..Now if someone were to find a way to make money with them I`d like a cut. :whistling: And if you like one of my pics enough to save it I`m flattered by that..Oh and if you ever get to the Applebees in Cortland NY and see the Brockway pics on the wall, yeah those are mine and I did make a little on that deal....
