When I e mailed Manny the "look what I saw on the trip" I wasn't hallucinating photos, I don't think that I had the © on them. So, it wan not like he took it off and replaced it. I am sure that it is just an oversight on his part.

I just bring it up here to increase awareness of how important it is to give people credit for thier photos. I wasn't posting photos on the internet much back then. Today, there are more photographers thanks in part to digital. The ability to share photos has increased drastically in the past two years.

It is a reminder to everyone about the importance of the accuracy of the little © on the photos when they are used by others.

I also get upset when people post photos that have been taken by others and they don't include the name of the photographer in the post when there is no notation of the photograph.
