I could understand that someone young and inexperienced may not understand the rules of photo usage, but the lifting was done by people working in companies that are large and established. They should have known better. He deserves to win.

The guy, who writes for several different newspapers in the City, must have bought one of my greeting cards and scanned it. He gave me photo credit but never asked me for permission. I'm lazier than Brad and never tracked him down for an explanation. If you are reading this please sign a first edition copy and send me a copy of the book, and I'll consider it even (Photo on pg 89, taken from my balcony). (I deleted all the references to the author and book, I don't want to be sued even if its true) Last year I noticed one of my photos was used in a book about Philadelphia architecture.
