Cheers James,

It was just a general query, although it was sparked by a particular image I have seen in two different places credited to different people / institutions.

It all makes a bit more sense now…

Brings in a third element – accredittation – many people collect or obtain images without neccessarily having copyright, they then pass these of to others to use and are creditted (Sometimes as ‘DAF Collection’, ‘via DAF’, ‘Crown Copyright via DAF’ as well as just ‘DAF’ Doesn’t mean they own the copyright, it usually just indicated where the author has obtained the image from.

My name has appeared in a couple of books under just those circumstances!
