Dear Brighterorange,
+
+
We are visual artists and academics who are currently working on a chapter in a book entitled ‘The Photograph and the Album’ (published by MuseumsEtc http://museumsetc.com/blogs/news/7422776-forthcoming-the-photograph-and-the-album). We are also contributing to the editorship of this volume.
+
Our chapter is examining the role that the internet plays in acting as a 'giant photograph album'. We have taken this principle and have begun to look for images, searching – as many of us do – under our own names, curious to find out what images appear.
+
+
The following image came up in relation to one of our surnames:
+
+
Southside Slopes neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from East Carson Street. Taken in 2007. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Southside_Slopes_from_Carson.jpg
+
+
We are interested in using the image in our chapter and want to confirm that you agree that we can do this in line with the statement that appears in Wikimedia Commons which is as follows:
+
+
“This work has been released into the public domain by its author, I, Brighterorange. This applies worldwide. In some countries this may not be legally possible; if so: I, Brighterorange grants anyone the right to use this work for any purpose, without any conditions, unless such conditions are required by law.”
+
+
To be clear about our use of the image, it will appear as part of a sequence of images for which we will provide full captions and acknowledgement (in reference to the information which appears on the webpage provided above).
+
+
We hope you are willing to give permission and would appreciate if you would confirm this via this email – j.carson@salford.ac.uk. We would also be very grateful if you could inform us of any other parties from whom we should seek permission in reference to this image, if you are aware of any such parties.
+
+
We would appreciate it if you could respond by Friday April 19th 2013.
+
+
Thank you for your consideration & please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
+
+
Very best regards, Rosie Miller & Jonathan Carson
