While on holiday in Italy i took some pix of plants in a botanical garden. There was no admittance fee, it was publicly accessible.
Can i upload the pix of the plants I took there, or does the owner of the botanical garden has some form of ownership?
This is not to say that the botanical garden doesn't claim restriction on the use of images taken within its walls (in my experience, non-commercial clauses are the norm). In fact, such restrictions are quite commonplace for botanical gardens, zoological parks, and many other facilities. This should not be mistaken for a claim of copyright; and at most they might do is deny you access to their property in the future.
