Not too long ago, AcidBathSadie ( [link] ) and I took a trip down to Fort Erie, Ontario, Canada, my old stompin' grounds. We had a blast, and I had the chance to take a bunch of great images from one of my favourite locations, Erie Beach.
Since posting the images, I've had more than a few 's (Thanks everybody!) and a handful of requests to use my photos as stock imagery. I mostly consider myself a half-trained shlub with a camera, the beauty of whose images can be credited more to the subject than anything beyond passing talent, so I must admit that the requests caught me unawares. Having not thought of the idea, I never bothered to post rules regarding the use of my pictures for photo-editing.
Anyway, rather than going through each image and pasting in photo rules, I decided to post them here:

Yes, you may use my photos for stock purposes, or for image editing and backgrounds in your own work. However, the following conditions apply.

1. Give me some credit!
True, my work is mostly a matter of being in the right place at the right time, and (debatably) choosing the right shutter speed, but I -was- the one who was there at the time. If you use my images, please be kind enough to drop a link into your own posting in acknowledgement.

2. Leave the Ladies Out of It
The models depicted in my photos are random friends who happened to be on hand. Their appearance is for recreation, and/or in recognition of their beauty. Some of them are unsure of that beauty, and none of them have signed image release forms. I therefore ask that you refrain from using images containing people - or if you do use such images, cropping or otherwise editing the model out. In cases where the model is on dA (as the majority of my friends are), I have posted a link to their gallery. You may want to try sending them a note and asking their permission directly. If they don't mind, I don't mind.

3. Yes, I Can Provide Higher Resolution
Although most of the images I post to my gallery are 600 or 800 pixels wide, the originals are typically at slightly higher resolution. 1600x1200 is my typical photo size, with the occasional image shot at 2048x1536. As stated above, these images are recreational, and I never really intend to print them, so that's the best I can do. If it suits your needs, though, drop me a line. I'll happily provide the larger image.

4. Please Use These Images Only On dA
Your blog or other personal web-page is fine, as long as you provide a link, as specified in #1. If you wish to make other use of these images, please contact me to discuss the matter.

5. Cut, Print!
Yes, you may use these images in your prints. Again, a link on the associated image is all I ask in return.

6. Enjoy!
We're all here to share and have fun!
