Probably a dumb question with a very obvious answer but here goes. In the 'olden days' it was relatively easy to prove that you owned the copyright of an image. You could simply produce the original transparency or negative. Even when you supplied a scan of that trannie or neg and it had been passed on to all and sundry with or without your permission, you still had the original piece of film to prove ownership if ever a dispute came to law.
My question is - how can you do that with a digicam image when, presumably, every copy that you or anybody else makes is an exact clone of the original? I am obviously assuming that you haven't embedded a watermark, invisible or otherwise, in the image. Finally, if any Prodiger can recommend a good copyright lawyer, preferably in NW England, could they please contact me off-list!
