VW Car Show at St. Petersburg Pier

On March 24, 2012 I stumbled upon the Bugs on the Pier VW Car show setting up at the St Petersburg Florida Pier while I was out for a morning cruiser bike ride.  Unexpectedly, I ran into our former mailman arriving at the show, along with his brothers who are all VW enthusiasts. Raced home to grab my camera and had a blast shooting these details of the Volkswagens on a beautiful winter Florida day.

  1. A painting made from a photograph is known as a derivative work. But that doesn’t mean you can simply make a painting from any photo you find — you need to check the copyright situation of the photo. Don’t assume because the likes of Warhol used contemporary photos that it means it’s okay if you do.

    The creator of the photograph, i.e. the photographer, usually holds the copyright to the photo and, unless they’ve expressly given permission for its use, making a painting based on a photo would infringe the photographer’s copyright. In terms of US copyright law:”Only the owner of copyright in a work has the right to prepare, or to authorize someone else to create, a new version of that work.”1 You may be able to obtain permission to use a photo for a derivative work from the photographer, or if you’re using a photo library buy the right to use it.
