Can I sell photo I have taken of statues, subway art, flower beds in parks?
Hi. Flower beds, statues are common places or historic monuments, that You can take shots of. Nobody is the owner of the statue, and more nobody is the owner of any flower. These things are not taken into account when we talk about copyright.


As to subway art, I do not know what You mean exactly, but if it is some kind of graffiti, poster, billboard, et, then it was created by another artist / man like You , and of course he/she has the rights. If taking for example a photo of a metro station and You incorporate these kind of things in Your images, You are still able to sell the photographs, but You will need the Property Release from the original artist or ask the company who produced the arts.

Reply:yes there is in fact a book which you can get at Amazon.com titled 'THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S MARKET"





If you took the photograph and published it on the net etc, you would be the owner of copyright. But if you really want more security, You could take the one photo or a collection and pay I think 20.00 and send copies to the copyright office and have copyright.

You would own the copyright, as you took the photograph, It is not a question of what you took the photo of.
