Media photographs

Regarding the Media presentation of Laverda-related photographs, I was wondering where these photographs are sourced from before being streamed here on the Forum. I ask this because I see photographs that I took many many years ago and I don't recall ever posting them on this Forum or any other 'Social media site', to be sure there are some photos I did post on this Forum. No worries, no objections, a bit of a surprise that is all.

This has come up before on a couple of nostalgia forums I'm on. Often pics lifted from print media can be attributed to a photographer, sometimes they can't. Convention seems to be attribute where possible. So far i've not seen any copyright arguments. Possibly because many sites on the net have a pay system for the use of their images. A couple of professional photographers I know locally have put their archive up on the net for use - with permission. Both long time sports photographers with a huge catalogue. Both have done advertising work too - which is I imagine copyright.

The internet is both insidious and intrusive…

You must have posted them or given them to someone! Or maybe other photographers were nearby taking similar shots? I’d ask the original poster, or ask the mods if you’re having trouble finding out who it is.

Just something I recently discovered, if you click on a picture with Google there is a button you can hit that can trace the picture's origin or at least identify some info related to it.

The photos are all from 'here' I can assure you! The only issue about 'here' is that could be either the original MSN board started by Paul LeClair or any of the subsequent iterations along the road.. Laverdapedia or the more recent SMF variant of LaverdaForum.
