By Spanish astrophotographer, Daniel López:

Aunque mi especialidad es la fotografía astronómica, también realizo otros trabajos fotográficos y vídeos, todos relacionados con la naturaleza, paisajes y lugares interesantes en los que siempre trato de sacar algo nuevo y dar otro punto de vista diferente y “mágico”.

Now.

After the Chekhov Moscow Art Theater’s performance of Hamlet, actress Marina Golub slips and falls on stage in front of the audience.

Cue a rather wonderful, spontaneous act of solidarity by the rest of the cast.

And, just like that, fail becomes win.

Lady Gaga is now demanding that photographers surrender the copyright of photos taken at her concerts – and photographers are incensed.

Washington, D.C. website TBD.com made this practice public on Friday when they published the release form given to their photographer Jay Westcott. In addition to standard release restrictions regarding the use of images shot at her concerts, the document states that any photos taken at the show  become the property of Lady Gaga. This an especially bold demand as the government has established that copyright exists the moment when a work is created, which in this case is the moment when a photographer clicks their shutter button.

Good luck with that, Miss Germanotta.
