Brownsvillian Memorial Wisconsin Ice Riding Thread (WI)

So nobody is riding this weekend? WTF?

plow guys decided other stuff was more important. simply not true on such a short season.
and without plow guys, we got nothing.

Glad we're not out there today. Too much sun and not enough wind!!

I'm watermarking photos
because people keep using them and don't give photo credit.


Example

Example


I'm saying what is so hard to put "photo by ..."
when you download it to your Facebook profile page?
Only Bonebag, out of 30-40 profile gave photo credit & he even offered me a drink.


Here is another example:



He is another example of someone in Europe using my photos
of the Harley Museum as his own.

Photos were easy to find.

I'm very glad to see you stand up for your excellent work, Jim!
I have started watermarking as well, for the same reason. I gave it some thought and decided it really isn't an ego thing (I know full well I'm not particularly good, certainly not on your level), and it's obviously not about money since it's just a hobby - it's about simple courtesy. I like to see my shots used and shared, but as you said, it's not that hard to type in a "photo by:"

All that said, my current ADV avatar photo was shot by Dan Salton, whom I have credited elsewhere, but didn't really see a way to do it on the avatar. And similarly, if I've used any of yours without proper credit, on Bucky stuff or wherever -- smack me upside the head, cause it ain't right!

I really like your work. I don't know why I didn't think to hand you a camera to use when we were talking a couple of weeks ago up on Winnebago - I guess I was too focused on getting back on an ice bike after two years, and wasn't really thinking much about shooting. But maybe you wouldn't have stooped to shooting with a Canon anyway.

Dito,

Brian and Bryan, the three of us are very equal in the photography department.
We all have our good shots and good days.

It's a breathtaking rush,

seeing 5 bikes rushing towards your lens

Great shot.

I'll play:

I have determined that the reason there are no picture of me doing awesome things, is because I do not, in fact, do awesome things .Despite seeing a camera on corners
