G'day Geoff
In October last year Threebs posted a photograph of two Manchester Liners ships moored in No. 9 dock Manchester. Threebs attributed the photo to Manchester Docks Archives.
I was doing a Google search yesterday and the "same" photograph came up but had a Getty Images watermark blazened across the image.
It would seem that anything the goes out on social media or the web in general is classified as Public Domain and get's appropriated accordingly.
As happened in Melbourne and elsewhere in 2021, when the protesting anti-vaxxers were flying the Red Duster - albeit upside - but maybe they were in distress!
Cheers
John
