Thanks Ian. Unfortunately I'm no longer their photographer (a certain person was using my images without permission or removing my copyright) but I did enjoy shooting them while it lasted - and there are plenty more musicians out there who do like my shots and don't take the mickey!

Oh, sorry to hear that, Caz - copyright is such a sticky issue with digital images and we have been victims too.

It's their loss, not yours!

Ian - So glad that you agree!

However, the facebook slagging-me-off campaign was a little hurtful, but I just ignored it and didn't get into a flaming war. My only comments (on my own pages, not theirs) were to post a link to copyright rules.

Oh, and I sat one evening and untagged everything I'd ever shot of them so their galleries are now a little sparse! Childish? probably. Satisfying? defnitely!

Cracking picture, Carol, and that's not altered by falling out with the band - they can't take that away from you!

I once let an up-and-coming band use a set of my pictures on their website for free. I was somewhat surprised to discover they had subsequently used one in the insert of their first CD and credited it to another photographer! There was no point pursuing it, because by the time I found out they had split up anyway.
