Every now and again one gets to see or hear something that is uncommonly grand.  I felt this way when I watched "IL Divo" perform Amazing Grace at the Coliseum in Rome.  These 4 diverse opera singers will give you goosebumps when you watch them perform one of the best songs of all times in a setting so appropriate to the selection.  ENJOY!

These are not the greatest pictures, but they are my first launch photos!  They're taken from our front yard, no need to even go down to the river, however the views are more dramatic from that vantage point.  This launch has been delayed several times in the past couple of weeks.  Sorry the pics are not better, but they're the first from my new camera and I was anxious to see how they would turn out.

Here's another idea to help protect your photographs from unguarded plagiarism. 

Earlier we talked about saving your photos in RAW format which records all information about each picture, including date and time stamps as well as your copyright information.

Photo 101: Metadata & Your Photo Copyright

We learned that as good as you are in photography there is no guarantee that your photos won't be captured and made viral without your knowledge.

Photo Copyright Not Protecting ~ CASE Study to prove a point

But there is another layer you can put between yourself and the unintentional (or not) "photo grabber". 

Very simply, link your photos back to either your blog or website, where the C&P (copy and paste) person will unknowingly be providing a link back to you.  The caveat here is that they don't first save the image to their hard-drive.  I won't go further, so as not to provide too much "useful" information.  Here is an example of what I mean.  Below is one of my photographs; it contains a live link - click the photo below and see what happens.

Also note that "Gail MacMillan Copyright 2009" is imbedded in this picture.  None of this is fool-proof BUT it does provide another "Link in the Armor"  Happy shooting :-)
