At first, I was frustrated at not being credited-or worse, when other’s claimed as their own without bothering to remove my watermark. I quickly found my efforts to find and gain credit to be futile. Over time, I was able to appreciate that people enjoyed the image irrespective of their knowledge of who actually captured it.
