Are you sure? Don't things like your nostrils complicate matters?

Mmm, good point. I guess the book I was reading glossed over that one. ;-)

I can't quite get my head around how a photograph of a piece of public art can
be copyrighted. And no I don't mean to open up a discussion ;)

Or how a recording of a public place can be copyrighted. Or the sheet
music for something written several centuries ago. Or a recording of a
free concert. Or, hell, somebody's DNA sequence...

Things would get interesting if some other artist built another
sculpture right besides it, or inside it, or around it, in a manner that
the one could not be photographed without the other: Who would then be
allowed to distribute photographs of the smash?
Or how about architects? Can they forbid photos of their buildings to be
distributed? How could anyone then distribute photos of any public place
at all?
(And how does Google go about it? Do they pay royalties for all the
sculptures they show on Google Maps?)
The US do have some crazy copyright laws.
