How close is too close?

Hope it didn't press the shutter button otherwise the debate on who owns the copyright might start all over again.

That's definitely too close.

As I recall, that was settled in the USA where the courts decided animals are not people and cannot hold the copyright. If this comes up in other countries whose legal basis is Common Law (i.e. just about any country that was once part of the British Empire), this will likely be a precedent that will be closely examined in those places.

Thanks for the comments.

Yup, I followed the case quite closely Manfred. I typed the comment with a bit of a wry smile on my face.
