    What's crazy to me is normally these photos show their age. These however, look recent. Pretty cool.

    Did you play with them to increase quality?

    Did you just find these photo's on the internet or did you take them personally and then copyright them without Ferrari S.p.A. approval? I have numerous photo's that I have taken personally through out the years and share them openly without worrying about recognition or a copyright. Maybe I am missing something?

    No disrespect intended just curious.

    Someone took them, i meet this person and bought originals. I think i m in the right way.
    The man was from maranello, when i saw the pictures in 1990 he sold me them and others.

    Well the pictures are great so thank you for sharing them. On the other hand I personally do not perceive acquired material justified for copyright but that is just me.

    In another thread regarding JS's "288 GTO" book you made it perfectly clear that you are unhappy that your contribution/recognition was left out/unrecognized.
    Try to help me understand why this recognition is so important to you ok? On second thought I do not care.

    Awesome pics Christian.

    Interesting to see the protection used over the Lexan engine bay cover!

    The wheels seem to have some sort of protection too.

    For any photographer is important. There s many years ago i was no interrested by the copyrights.
    Today, i changed my mind, i do, did, mistakes. But now i will try to do it correctly.
    I never ask money for pictures, never. Others do it.
    So don t forget me :)

    I think Joe will do the correction, for me it was important. I was waiting the book
    Since 2010 and show it to my father...but last october he pased away.

    Thanks Joe, i trying to imagine a product line empty of workers, ideal for pictures. But
    Believed inside the factory it s impossible to do pictures. So i prefer yo buy them.

    Christian, I know English isn't your first language, so I'm not entirely sure what you mean when you say, "I will try to do it correctly." But I think it's very important that you understand that you haven't done anything wrong. There's nothing wrong with copyrighting your images - it doesn't matter if they are images that you took yourself, or if they're images that you purchased; if the images belong to you, then it's completely within your right to copyright those images.

    These days, too many people steal images from one place and then post them in another. Some people will go so far as to Photoshop someone else's copyright or watermark.

    Even though he said he intended no disrespect, texasmr2's attitude is clearly indicative of trying to start a fight - and on a topic about which he obviously knows little or even nothing:
    If you really don't care, why did you spend the time to quote Christian and reply to his posts? If you really didn't care, you wouldn't have replied at all. What's your issue here? Are you trying to bait Christian into some kind of an argument? No more clout in the subscribed sections, so you're venturing out here to cause trouble?

    Why is his copyright not justified? He paid for the images, he owns that property, why shouldn't he put measures in place to keep people from taking that for which he paid good money? Do you have an alarm on your house or your car? Do you hide your ATM pin from others? Why? What's the difference between you protecting your stuff and Christian protecting his stuff?
