I hadn't realised what a can of worms I would open with this.:0 But I think everyone in the process should be acknowledged.
my question however was about photographs. These are mainly landscape and some are quite 'arty' with lovely skies etc which I did as extra to the others and doesn't have excavation or finds etc to report on. What if I decided to publish them or do a talk...do I have to seek permission to use my own photos? When I look through my archaeology books the photos and illustrations are credited to the artist yet I appear to have disappeared already so the likely hood of my being credited this time is slim.
Just for the record, when I start to write reports I will endeavour to acknowledge as many individuals in the process as possible...after all I know now how it feels to be forgotten and I'm sure many of you feel or have felt the same.:face-approve:
