Copyright, the Gov. and the Call Girl and Travel Tips for you and Your Camera Gear

Tune-in and enjoy this edition of Photo Talk Radio featuring lawyer and legal expert Carolyn E. Wright, specializing in issues that affect photographers everywhere. Copyright, as important to protecting our photography as it is, can be somewhat clinical. That's until you add the sensational revelations that former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer hired a call girl which lead to his downfall and in the process created copyright issues when photos of "Kristen," the call girl were taken from her MySpace page and published apparently without her permission. Carolyn will explain the basics of copyright, the Spitzer case and what protection you really have. When she's not handling legal issues, Carolyn can be found behind the camera photographing wildlife in the great outdoors. She's also a regular contributor at ProPhotoResource.com as well. Also visiting will be Steven Frischling, a globetrotting editorial, corporate and commercial photographer, traveling to more places in a year than most of us will do in a lifetime. Steven is smart and well informed on security at airports and elsewhere around the World especially for photographers. He's equally smart at making sure his camera gear travels as safely as he does and will share his travel tips with you.
