Freedom of panorama: EU proposal could mean holiday snaps breach copyright
EU plans to reform copyright law could see Britons facing legal action for publishing photos they have taken of famous landmarks

A new EU proposal could see millions of Britons face legal action for uploading photos of famous UK landmarks onto personal websites or even Facebook pages.

Monuments such as the Angel of the North and the London Eye, or public works of art such as Trafalgar Square’s Fourth Plinth or Liverpool’s Superlambananas, may need to be blacked out in holiday snaps to avoid breaching the copyright of individual architects or artists.
