It seems to heap insult upon injury that the article is fallacious! Unless you were really trying to sell that teapot on Ebay. Go get them!

EDIT: Ah, I see on your photo that it was a spoof. So there really was such a photo and they grabbed the wrong one? Crazy.

Your complaint and the fact they used a non-eBay photo should make for a humorous follow-up article. :-D

I think it's rather insipid of them to think that the shots are accidental. maybe the yellow dress, but none of the others.

I've been around, entering a few challenges here and there, but also found a great new job, moved into a flat with my girlfriend, and other general life kinds of things! Going to hopefully start getting my camera out more often now though! :)

when you get your next place, go for an jagged, or a circular, they're much more interesting to live in.
furniture placement takes on a whole new level of planning.

Good to see some more SC members online, and participating. looking forward to hoepfully seeing more work from you, love the portfolio.

More important then them stealing your photo is. Another member of the Site council has reemerged from the depths of nowhere!

Welcome back Ben.

Yep, good to see your name in the forums,

Konador!
Although I 'have' seen your pics in the Challenges recently
and was pleased to know you're still around.
You have always yanked at the limits of photography and I hope you always will.

I'll have to look more closely - I thought the tripod placement had prevented exposure!

Au contraire, Blackadder! I had to buy my girlfriend a fisheye just so that she could appreciate the full scope of the thing!
