Just checking...are the photos from the creative commons, and are they copyright free?

gakinme · #6 10-02-2009, 01:19 PM

Oops, I did one already. I'll wait until Robin gives the go ahead before posting it.

**azulparsnip** · #7 10-03-2009, 06:58 PM

No these were not in the creative commons. I think a couple of these had some kind of notations but none of them had a copyright posted. I searched for these just now to check on it but it appears that they have all been removed from the stream-- I went way back past the date I was there.

wow, I see the copyright thread sticky was posted while I was away....June you probably should just take those photos down. I have somemore from my relatives that we can post instead.

gakinme · #9 10-03-2009, 10:48 PM

So, Robin, that means we could go ahead and copy these photos?

Oh, fer heaven's sake, may copyright law be repealed soon. Until then, here are a few photos I took myself; they are thoroughly, entirely, completely, utterly copyright-free, and may be used for any purpose, of any kid whatsoever, without asking for any permission:

House and garden, near Soesterberg, The Netherlands:

Autumn in the Netherlands:

Protea flower head, South Africa:

Swan reflected, South Africa:

I'll look around in my collection to see if I can find any more. Unfortunately all from South Africa, where I live, or the Netherlands, where I spent two years around 2000. So not as much variety, I fear!

Brian, these are great. Many thanks.

Mette Rörström · #12 10-04-2009, 07:56 AM

Thank you, Brian. I will do at least two of them.

gakinme · #13 10-04-2009, 11:30 AM

Thank you, Brian, for these photos. Alright, I won't do those posted by Robin. I'll try the swan definitely.

These couple of days, I have been practicing on rendering water and this swan and reflection was perfect to try it on.

Sandra this looks like it is done on sand stone or something. What do you mean by rendering on water? Wetting the page thouroghly first?
