LawClanger Link: The Photographer of the Westminster Omnibus

The Photographer of the Westminster Omnibus

My thoughts on the much-criticised case in which it was held that one Photoshopped picture of a London bus on Westminster Bridge infringed the copyright in another, well-known photo of the same scene. Is the decision as mad as it at first seems, or as wide-ranging in its effects as some have suggested?
