The monk parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus), also known as the quaker parrot, is a small, bright-green parrot with a greyish breast and greenish-yellow abdomen. In most taxonomies, it is classified as the only member of the genus Myiopsitta. It originates from the temperate to subtropical areas of Argentina and the surrounding countries in South America. Self-sustaining feral populations occur in many places, mainly in North America and Europe.

The word Buddha is a lovely word, it means 'the one who knows".

A Monk Parakeet in Barcelona. Apparently, there is a population of 10,000 or more now, escapees from the exotic pet trade, they numbered a mere 50 in 1975. There is something similar going on in San Francisco, but with much smaller numbers.

A Buddhist monk at the Boudha Stupa in Boudhanath, Kathmandu, Nepal

Built in the early 14th century and still has the citie's only working portcullis. It was intended as a self-contained fort, and each floor is capable of being defended separately. The current gatehouse was built to replace a 12th-century gate known as Munecagate, which stood 100 yards (91 m) to the north-west, on the site of the Roman gate porta decumana.

 

Plagiarism - What's The Difference?

 

Jakar Dzong, Bhutan. The huge prayer wheel and the small monk were blurred with a long exposure. I'm sure I'm not the first photographer to have used a long exposure for this subject, but as long as I am not copying someone else's photograph, I have nothing to fear! David Oliver and I are leading a group to Bhutan next year - only a few places left, so get in touch if you're interested.

 

In the AIPP's The Working Pro newsletter this month, I wrote a piece about plagiarism - the direct copying of someone else's work. In the old days of painting, it was usual for a student to directly copy the work of his master as a process of learning. For photographers today, that process is still highly recommended, except if you do copy someone else's photograph, don't enter it into a competition or post it on social media as though it were your own.

 

The problem isn't in the copying, it is in misrepresenting the photograph as being your own work.

 

So, what about subjects that have been photographed before? We've all seen photographs of the Sydney Opera House, so does that mean when we take our own photos of the Opera House we are plagiarists? Of course not - unless we take along someone else's photograph of the Opera House and seek to copy it directly.

 

If plagiarism were based on subject matter, portrait photographers would be in trouble because we all take photos of people! It's not the subject matter as much as the way or the manner in which the photo is taken. If you apply your own individual style and approach, that should usually be enough to distinguish yourself.

 

On social media recently, there have been a few examples of photographers exhibiting images that are incredibly similar to the work of other photographers. What these photographers might not always recognise is the amount of discussion about the similarity that happens elsewhere. It doesn't paint them in a good light. This isn't to say that just because a photograph is very similar to someone else's that it was copied. It could be coincidence and so we should also be careful not to accuse someone of plagiarism before we know all the facts.

 

It's an interesting subject and one that has many interesting facets and turns!
