What a strange comment.

From a physical or data point of view anyone can own a copy of any work. Just because something isn't your intellectual property doesn't mean you can't own a version of it.

Add to that the fact a photographer (or indeed anyone) can legally assign their copyright to other parties or not claim copyright in the first place.
