Are these photos copyrighted? I
Are these photos copyrighted? I ask because it seems that here are a few people (whose hard-drives I need to figure out how to access) who have a wealth of photos on subs like the Akula, Typhoon, LA, Seawolf, Virginia, etc. If they were personal property, I'd think that the Subcommittee could devote a special issue or stand-alone booklet of these photos and sell a bunch of them. Heck, I'd spend some $$$ for a booklet of color photos of the Akula, for example. Heck, I'd pay for internet access of those shots on a Subcommittee reference pay-site.
Just a thought, but there are bloody few pictoral references (especially detail stuff) of any of the modern nukes out there. I can't tell you how many Russian books I've bought from Aviapress or Armybook just hoping for a few new shots of modern Russian subs.
Like I said, just a thought.
