Miss Aniela Photography

There seems to have been a number of artists experiencing appalling cases of copyright infringement, someone in the latest line being Lara Jade, a self portrait of whose (an image made when she was 14) was used by a pornographic film company.

Lara has tried to approach the company but received rude, pathetic responses. I hope that posting this on my blog will raise awareness about the improper use of this image, and if you have any advice for Lara about what to do, please help. Read about it and comment with any advice on her Flickr page

It’s been a while since I last blogged but I thought I’d drop in and leave a few words.

Looking forward to getting university exams and coursework out of the way so I can embark on a summer season’s worth of further photography and more experimentation with the self portrait. I will be aiming for my next exhibition and reviewing options of ‘what next…’

Also I want to learn more about my camera (haha). I figure it’s extremely worthwhile to learn about different files and the ways of maximising file size from capture stage to processing stage, e.g. RAW files, TIFF files. If anyone knows a good online tutorial on these related matters, general, or on the Sony R1 itself, or about Adobe Photosop CS2, I would be very grateful for your help!
