I ask because myself and my friend were up at Mow Cop castle (Cheshire) y'day having fun taking some portraits and landscapes.
A man wearing a national trust jacket walked upto us and asked us if we were amateurs.
He then went on to say its ok if you are but we will prosecute anyone selling images of the castle.
He said the castle is copyrighted by the national trust.
He then waffled on about some guys who were taking portrait shots of themselfs and having the castle as the back drop and using them shots commercially was illegal or whatever. I tuned out at this point.
I want to know if there is any truth behind this and wether you can or can't sell images of the castle at your own desire.
Anyone with some trusty know how wanna share their thoughts?
