Subject: [Leica] Austrian contest in 'Leica Fotographie' - beware

On page 37 of the latest Leica Fotographie International is a contset promoted by an Austian gallery in Vienna. The contest has a prize of 800 euros but beware - I have just checked the competition rules and the total copyright of all prize winning photographs belongs to the gallery once they have paid over the prize money. The entrants are not allowed to publish the image any more. This is cheap exploitation of a photographers rights.
