Wordless Wednesday - St. Simon's



And, I'm cheating and making this only half of a wordless kind of post . . .

I stumbled across something on the great internet world that has left me scratching my head. Thanks to my trusty hit counter, I found one of my pictures somewhere else. Frankly, I don't like that form of flattery. Nor can I see why they would want it, because I'm not really that good. I mean, seriously, if you're going to poach pictures, take one from a good photographer at least!

So, from here on out, I will be watermarking. As much as it bugs the crap out of me to add an extra step, and as ridiculous as it may look stuck on those random, crappy snapshots, it will be there.

(And, no, it wasn't a picture of E.)

Some people are just not nice. I never thought about checking to see if anyone was steeling my pictures. I don't know why anyone would want them, but I think I'll check out my hit counter now. Thanks for the info.
