Deek Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 It appears to be identical to one of the pics posted here. I would agree, no doubt about it. It said on the BBC the pictures were by Nick Pike. If BWM aint him, sue them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawrrrrrrr Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Whilst it is remarkably similair it would be hard to prove it was ripped off as all that is visible is the fire and the cars which wouldnt have been movable If there were people or other movable objects you could maybe prove it reasonably but a fire is going to look the same in pictures around the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
