Along came Copytrack again yesterday, identifying an image that they allege we stole and put on Lucireâs website. And once again I had to go back through old emailsâonly 11 years this time, not 13 like the lastâto retrieve the email to prove that I had the correct licence to publish it, and that and the download page where I got it (itâs one of the most famous fashion labels in the world and knowing their budgets, theyâve paid for press). You wonder why they donât whitelist legitimate publications.
Itâs all very well for them to use their automated systems but I have to get the DVD archive manually. Iâm just incredibly fortunate that Iâve kept every email since the 1990s.
On that note, Iâve marked most of the gallery entries on this blog as private today. Pretty much every image in the gallery I know to be either licensed for press use or is a publicity pic. But some have come via social media. I simply recognized them to be the press images because I have a photographic memory, and, for fun, Iâve added them to the gallery. Even though legally I have numerous defences, and I’m pretty sure I’d prevail in case of any legal claim, for a personal blog itâs just too much of a hassle when these so-called copyright services come knocking. Iâll do the hunt for work but Iâm not being paid to blog. I know a lot of you enjoyed those gallery posts but theyâre going to be pretty limited moving forward.
There are plenty of nice pics at Lucireâfeel free to pop by there for a gander.

Here are January 2023âs imagesâaides-mĂ©moires, photos of interest, and miscellaneous items. I append to this gallery through the month.
Notes
Rosa ClarĂĄ image, added as I was archiving files from the third quarter of 2021.
The Claudia Schiffer Rolling Stone cover came to mind recentlyâI believe it was commended in 1991 by the Society of Publication Designers, which I was a member of.
I looked at a few more risquĂ©, but mainstream, covers to see what is appropriate, since the Lucire issue 46 cover was one of our more revealing though most glamorous ones in years. Vanity Fair and Women’s Health were useful US cases.
Lucire 46 cover for our 25th anniversary: hotographed by Lindsay Adler, styled by Cannon, make-up by Joanne Gair, and hair by Linh Nguyen. Gown by the Danes; earrings by Erickson Beamon at Showroom Seven; and modelled by Rachel Hilbert.
