Those Brits look like Aussies!

Dear London Daily News, that photo you’ve used was taken by me for use by the PTUA. I don’t recall providing permission for you to use it, and I don’t see any attribution on it.

London Daily News nicked one of my photos

I wonder if anybody clicked through to look at the detail in the picture and wondered whereabouts Caulfield station is in England or Wales?

(Found while searching Google Images for crowded trains.)

Photo Credit on the article is Vaughan Williams – I’d say Vaughan nicked the photo and submitted it as his own.
I’d contact the London Daily News and make sure they know who really took the photo.

Vaughan (aka my legal department) approached them this morning. They assumed he was the photographer, and put his name on it, until it was pointed out who actually took it.

No, actually, I just emailed them a link to the blog post, and they put two and two together and got nineteen, prompting them to credit it to me!
You’ll see it’s now credited correctly to Daniel of the PTUA.

I wonder if it’s possible for that photo to go off the planet because so far that’s the only place it hasn’t been seen… yet!

Just had to check.
