I feel badly for those who used their time & talents to "catch" these
outstanding photos, place them online for all of us to enjoy only to have
them copied illegally and used without their permission, just for the sake
of making someone else's efforts look good.
I realize that my comments will foster more interest in his page (ugh!),
and this is not really the place for this dialogue, but I sincerely hope
that we, as a group, can avoid visiting his page until he "cleans up his
act" and we are assured, by the photographers, that he is doing things
properly.
Just my .02 ...
