Do I need some kind of release to sell my book?
I am publishing a photography book via Blurb.com on architecture. Most of the photos are taken from street (public space) but some are taken inside building (National Gallery-London, Royal Observatory-Greenwich, Sketch restaurant-London, Westfield-Shopping mall, British Museum-London).
I intend to sell the book to friends and via the Blurb.com website bookstore.
Am I infringing any copyright law? Could I get sued over any issue?
Or is it safe as it is not in stores?
Thanks.
Stephan.
Just make sure that there are no kids in the picture.
