Hello fellow Clubsnappers,
Of late, i have had some disturbing news and since this isn't the first time it has happened, i thought it would be prudent to share it with everyone here, as well as to alert everyone of the perils.
Some of our Clubsnap member's portraiture shots/effort (those of female subjects), have been found re-posted on some other website/forums (I am not naming the sites since they have complied and removed the pictures already and one is in the process of doing so) and well, needless to say, it caused some consternation amongst us all. More so when the site isn't particularly reputable.
I firmly believe in common decency/courtesy and the least that anyone could do was to simply ask for permission before re-posting it anywhere. However, this wasn't the case.
Now, whoever that person who is responsible for leeching/re-posting, what you are doing is basically rude, thoughtless and of course, selfish, and by doing so, you basically discourage future portraits efforts to be posted here, for everyone to share and improve our techniques in portraiture shoots.
Whoever you are, whatever goes around, comes around.
Regards.
