It's happened to me a few times. I've seen my photos turn up on a website or blog. Nothing major yet (not that I've ever posted anything worth stealing!). I tend to upload smaller files to my Flickr, 1100 or 1200 pixels on the long side. This also works out well for posting on these forums.

I had some of my photos taken from my old Picasa Web Album and used on a commercial business site in Queensland.
I contacted the company, and said they can have the rights to use the images, if they send me one of their products, which was worth $400AU.
They agreed, and I sent them the original native photos.

Worked out well in the end.

Wow! I'm surprised and honored glinda, and I very much like that picture, the mood of the moment there is well captured.

Hello,

More on my wife's little plants.
K100D Super / M50 f4 macro

Looks like tiny little spiders are calling this home.

Thanks,

Nice cacti, colourful path, the gate and also the reflection!

Here's two shots from today's walk - no luck with the sun but maybe the overcast sky is fine for such autumn scenes.

Well, not quite....that's Main Street, Grapevine TX. It's a great little town - I lived there for nearly 30 years.

Those edges and bricks could be an interesting task for an SMC Pentax 28mm F3.5 Shift.

A local reseller has a used (fully functional) piece for $580. I was tempted to try it but it would probably be just another expensive toy.
