Images of Uluru [Ayers Rock] and Kata Tjuta [The Olgas] in the Northern Territory may not be published in any form [print, online, film/video or artisitic impression] without the written permission from the parks authority.

Professional photographers must obtain permission to photograph these areas - some parts cannot be photographed at all as they may be culturally sensitive or may only be viewed by certain people.

These regulations are also retroactive so regardless of the when the image was taken it may not be published or shown to the public without permission.

As a result of this Dishonline.com.au does not sell images of these areas.

A recent court case in the United Kingdom ruled in model Naomi Cambell's favour - allowing her claim that photos taken in a public place - leaving an NA meeting - were invading her privacy. This would indicate that Brits do have the right to privacy when in a public place. Anyone buying images [taken in the UK, without model release] for publication in the UK should check with their legal representative regarding their rights. Photographers should also be wary when snapping in the British public domain.
