Because photos posted on the internet are the property of the photographer that created them. Would akshadow mind, probably not, but it is common
courtesy non the less. It is a huge problem for photographers that find their work being used for commercial purposes by others, or being claimed by
others as being their creation.

Watermark everything....even the watermark. Those who make no effort to protect their work, mainly from vanity, wanting everyone to see the work at
it's best, only ask for trouble.
I think Ken Bondy has found some of his work in the wrong hands and it's like having your children kidnapped.
I would imagine that, since the internet came on the scene, stock photo agencies have taken a hard hit. |
Perhaps Ken really dont care about anyone lifting his stuff off his website http://dunken.smugmug.com/ He doesnt have a single anti tool on it.
here Ken....from me to you.

Mcfez,
My Smugmug photos are all low res images not original size. the real value of photos are the high res versions. As I said to Dennis all my images
have a copyright tag in the metadata, legally that isn't necessary. I have never refused permission to anyone that has asked to copy my work, by the
way.
