Philippine Photographer Sues Major Daily for Copyright Infringement

The group started as a mailinglist of Pinoy lomography enthusiasts on Yahoo!groups in 2003.

Five years and countless clicks later, Lomomanila has mounted several exhibits, parties, trips and other adventures. More than an online group now, we are a set of friends who collaborate not just on analog photography but on other endeavors as well.

We are an open, collaborative, loosely organized, yet a closely-knit collection of individuals pursuing projects with creative freedom.

while the incidence of photo theft has long been a pain in the neck for pinoy photographers in this age, i reckon this is a landmark case that will test the legal system's appreciation of copyright. i hope this brings to fruition something good for all pinoy photogs, and i hope pinoy society learns something from it i.e. that photos are copyrighted to the photographer.

goodluck on your crusade!
