Jim,

I am beginning to see photographers that are too willing to give up their rights and I fear in the future, there will no longer be a professional photographer because we gave the profession away.




You may wll be right. None of us has the power to keep out images secure. Only the one's with money, or power, or both can afford to take on the challanges. Us day-to-day guys cant take on copyright challanges. And even if we could, how would I collect my judgments?

I think we have to adjust, I dont see that we are giving it away or giving up, but unless we get more powerful as a group, there's no way to take this on as individuals.

There's always competition around every corner and there's always someone there to take your place. . . Regarless of how much government protection you want/damand or recieve.



There are very few stage coach drivers too. . .
