Photography Accessories
This episode sees the return of Sam Scholes to the co-hosting team.
A round through the news takes us to the heated discussion about Flickr using CC-licensed images for their wall art business – but are they really doing anything legally wrong?
Also, GoPro makers seem to be developing a new line of consumer drones to be the perfect match for their cameras. However, with the FAA planning to tighten the regulations on commercial use of drones, is this the best move fore them?
And for the stock photographers out there, how would you like to have your images captioned (maybe even keyworded) by your computer? Google getting closer.
And a reminder that we are giving away two copies of David Taylor’s Mastering Landscape Photography. Just let us know you want one via the comments below, email, twitter, facebook, etc. More details on the giveaway just around the corner.
In terms of accessories (thanks to Dieter for suggesting the topic), here are some of those we mentioned on the episode:

A few days ago I wrote a review of the new David Taylor’s book Mastering Landscape Photography, published in the UK by the Guild of Master Craftsmen Publications.
Now, PhotoNetCast has two copies of Mastering Landscape Photography to giveaway to our listeners.
All you have to do is share the word about the giveaway or the book – tweet about it, share it on facebook, post it on Google+. As long as you tag the show we should be able to find it. We are here on Twitter, Facebook and Google+. Winners will be randomly selected from all entries on December 25.
If you’re not lucky this time, you can always buy it directly from the publisher.
Good luck.
