UK Photographer John Findlay is stealing work...

[nkbeer]

In this day and age, Google is an amazing tool! This guy said he took this picture, even went so far as to say he had a tattoo that he removed... A little research found out otherwise. If you happen to see him in the Photography World, call him out...

you have no better things to do in your life as making some nazi vendetta because of such kiddy bullS___?

Went to his fb and it looks like it may be disabled, or be preventing comments. Good for you, bad for him.

it´s obviously a kid.
who else would say that he tried to removed a tattoo and did such a lousy job.
beside that everyone can clearly see it is a watermark not a tattoo.

and i agree.... when you have no other thing to bother about you must be a lucky guy.

ouch, that's one very bad move he made there! but i do not think everyone on earth has to know what he has done. people do worse things wich no one ever talks about.

You know, not everyone steals software. I'd presume from your comment that you don't pay for your software. Just because you steal, doesn't mean that others don't have greater moral principles.

Maybe you don't have the experience of having your photos stolen. It's infuriating. I've had a photo stolen and published in our rival newspaper's Sunday morning front page. And it was stolen by a self-proclaimed "artist/photographer". It makes me indignant when I hear of any other thievery going on and makes me want to do something about it.

You may have no sympathy for someone who is having their work stolen, but don't poo poo those who do.

Also, you apparently have nothing better to do than comment on someone making a vendetta...

Which is ok. I have nothing better to do than to criticize you for commenting on his vendetta. It's 7AM, I'm bored with another day without work and decided to entertain myself online.

You're probably a pretty miserable person aren't you?

@thatcherk1
please, there's no need to start a fight over this. relax, take a cup of tea or coffee and go outside with your camera. enjoy the rest of your day!

The thread could lead somewhere bad, I will leave it up though. It's important people don't steal photographic works.

This is my first lockdown!
