Hello Jesper,

Sure, no problem. I'll take it down today, tout suite. I was sent the photos by e-mail and I provided as much identification and credit as was known to me at the time. I would have included your web site if I was aware of it. In reviewing my post, I see that I gave credit to you as the phtographer right up front in my introductory remarks.

If I was making a buck at your expense, I could understand you being upset, but since I'm helping expose your photos to a larger audience (giving you full credit of course) than you might not otherwise gather on your own, I would think that you would appreciate that, rather than complain about it.

However, some people resent obtaining exposure and credit from others and insist on doing it on their own. And I can understand that, in an odd sort of myopic way.

So no sweat, I'll take down the photos immediately and all mention of you, of course.

Now, can we be friends?

Regards, Ken
