    Yep a well known guy .. he must have has a wall full of T7's photo's by now.

    Copyright is a laugh at the intenet.
    Found out yesterday that Veteran Avia is using without permission a shot I took on their site. Kabo Air the same....
    Just copied from jetphotos....

    Not much to do about that besides our watermark.

      Trouble is...I go to a lot of trouble in processing to erase dust, set contrast, exposure etc. etc. ......and then I have to protect the image by slapping a watermark across it and completely ruin the visual effect. I don't actually usually use watermarks because I would rather risk a theft than screw up a perfectly good image.
      If it 'ain't broken........ Don't try to mend it !

        Hi,
        In the past he also requested some 777's shots from me for he's personal use, It's actually even a little flattered me at that time, but after I sent some files, he continued and requested more and more...
        At that point I decided to stop, I wrote him very politely that it does not seem so fair that I struggle and work hard to succeed with the pictures, and he wants to get from ready-made ...
        He did not even bother to answer me for this email, so I realized that I made a big mistake because I sent him some files.

        All the best,
        Erez.

          Agreed. I never use the watermark but the recent discovery of that Veteran Avia shot on their site makes me in doubt....

            Hardly suprising for a company whose 747 was sitting semi-derelict at TIJ for years under some rather questionable/sketchy circumstances.

              I got a request for a couple of my 777 shots (2MB +) from this guy a few couple weeks ago. I told him that I would be happy to send him a shot that large as long as he was fine with me putting a large watermark across the aircraft. He didn't object! I think he really may just be genuinely interested in the 777.

                I received 3 e-mails requesting file sizes >2MB for personal use, all of images of 777's. Did not respond! Weird request and even stranger…the length of time this has been going on.

                  Dann is well known as a B777 fan. You wouldn't believe how many emails that he sends via our screening. Nonetheless, I am not a fan of releasing large size images in public.

                    Hi Richard
                    I don't see why you seem to get so upset and find these requests odd... he's asking for pictures of 777s that you have posted here not snaps of your family... I get requests from him and others from time to time and am glad to get them as it shows someone thinks that some of the images I post are nice.
