on May 5, 2013Yeah, I know the copyright detracts from the viewing experience, but when I did a search last week, I discovered that one of my best Osprey image is being used on a Columbia River "for sale by owner" real estate web site. Besides the issue of copyright infringement, it's disgusting to ponder the ethics of using a photo taken in Maine to illustrate the wonderful wildlife near the Columbia River properties in Washington state they're advertising. A couple of days later, my Statcounter data showed that someone in the same small town (Lacey, WA) was searching the 'Net for "diving osprey"! What a slimeball!!!
