@sidavis No acknowledgement. Pic is crap and by their own admission doesn't add much to the story but that's not the point!
Mail have lifted images from us before but they have previously paid up with good grace when confronted and not argued the point.
@zefrog Quite. Though there is a Streetview static image API they could use legitimately if they had the nous.
Mail picture desk claiming if image is on web it's fair game for them to use. Not sure their lawyers would like it if we lifted from them.
Daily Mail think it's OK to lift pics from the SE1 website because it's a street scene they could have got from Google Streetview instead!
Got to phone two picture desks today about unauthorised use of photos from SE1 website: @MailOnline & (surprisingly) @churchtimes
