Subject of long distance shot sues
Interesting information for our licensing concerns...

Always get the model release forms signed.

Can't say I wouldn't sue, cause I sure would too.

If the plaintiff wins this case it sure will put a damper on fine-arts photography. The general practice has been AFAIK that a release wasn't needed if the subject was shot in a public place and the resulting images weren't being used for advertising purposes. Many of the great fine-arts photos of the 19th and 20th centuries were shot where I'm certain no release exists.

I wonder if the $20K per pop he was selling them for had anything to do with the subject filing suit?
