Excellent question. I have always wanted to photograph the Pilgrimage myself. I think that the area is vast enough that you can shoot from numerous locations. While there, you will want to go to Abiquiu too. Looking forward to viewing your images. I’m envious. Good luck and have a great time.

I have tried just waiting for something to happen as I perched myself in one spot. However, I found that when I go to where the action is, it’s much more productive for me. I have attached some of my “wandering” images. The Foggy Morning Run was shot with a digital rig. All others shot on B/W film.

I found one of my images (attached) being used to sell products on E Bay. I notified the user that he was unauthorized to steal and use my image. He didn’t care. Once I notified E Bay of the theft, it was taken down fairly quickly.

I have heard conflicting information on that. I’ll look into it.

The Date. (From a copyright website)

The copyright date is perhaps greatest trap for the unwary. One of the purposes of the copyright date, under U.S. copyright law, is to assist members of the public in identifying which works are now in the public domain. To do this, a member of the public would take the copyright date appearing in the notice, add to it the number of years of the copyright term, and thereby arrive at a conclusion as to when the copyright would have expired. But what if the material contained in the work was developed in different years? Do you use the oldest date and deprive yourself of those extra few years of copyright protection? Do you use the present date and risk misleading the public that the entire work is protected by copyright starting from that year and ending at the end of copyright term? Such incorrect statements of fact in a copyright notice could lead a court to conclude that no copyright exists in the work as a result.

So what do you do when a work is created or revised over many years? If only one year is to appear in a notice, it should be the oldest year, associated with the oldest of the matter in the work. In other words, if one must err it should be in the direction of omitting newer years, not older years. Another approach is to put a range of years. For example, if the oldest matter in the work dates from 1998 and if the newest matter dates from 2000, the notice might say Copyright 1999 to 2000 followed by the name of the copyright owner.

Setting a date in Nikon’s is done under the copyright function.

My street shooting, yes.

I still love the process of threading a roll of Delta 400 into the F3 and wandering the streets. I usually have a deep yellow or orange filter on the lens. I then drop it off at the lab for souping and high res scanning.

Not the way of the DSLR?

Good to hear. I’m up to my neck in film gear. 🙄

Does he?
