Posted August 8 Question for fellow contributors...I found one of my images for large bales of alfalfa with SSs ID number below. I am unable to 'paste' a copy of the image to this message. Has anyone had their images 'stolen' and used under another photographers name and if so, how did you handle the issue? I have contacted SHUTTERSTOCK and PINTEREST with my issue. No reply yet.

Posted August 8 The image on pinterest links to this article https://www.ecofarmingdaily.com/grow-crops/grow-grasses-forage/when-and-how-to-harvest-alfalfa/ which has the image you refer to, is it possible they purchased the image and Juan is only linking to it? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 8 Beats me. I haven't experienced such a 'find,' and I am stumped about the circumstances. Your thought makes sense. When I see the image tied to the photographers name, I am concerned that something is terrible amiss! I've clicked the image I found to death and find nothing with my name as the Photographer. I hope other will reply. My thanks. Paul 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another place I found it was on the republic of togo site: https://www.republicoftogo.com/Toutes-les-rubriques/Sante/Un-cluster-repere-en-zone-franche where they have added their own copyright. Is that allowed? I also thought you had to credit when using for editorial reasons? Thanks in advance for any insight.“ 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
