Someone stole my picture
 
Can you look at the pictures on the page in this web link?

http://www.londondrugs.com/LDPS/psCa...oducts/Prints/

Now can you look at this picture?

http://www.pbase.com/hangman/image/17751624

Do any of you think that these might all be the same picture?

I think so, and if this is the case it would appear that I have had one of my pictures stolen and the rights to use it sold to London Drugs.

No-one has ever asked me if they could use it. :mad:

Thanks
Steve

Certainly the clouds look very similar but I have rubbish eyesight. If there was a 16x24 option I could probably say for certain ;)

Are you going to contact them?

Unfortunately the 8x12 is the largest they have using that image.

Yes I will be contacting them.

Save an archive of their webpage including the image files, in case a new picture appears hastily.

It is a great photo - are you sure you didn't steal it from them?:rofl::rofl:

Does appear to be the same, although couldn't zoom in on their's, but same yellow pick-up near the lamp post ect....

Just as well they didn't use some of your embarrassing one's, still they may be on a different type of web site..........:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Steve, I zoomed onto the smaller one and counted the cars in shot and compared colours etc. and it sure is taken from the same spot, and pretty much at the same time. Not knowing where you took it from, and whether someone else might have been there at the same time, but my guess is that it is your photo!

Good luck giving them hell.

Rob.

Re: Someone stole my picture
 
Yes, it sure looks the same, but I wonder if they will insist that someone was there 10 minutes after or before you and took it!!

Re: Someone stole my picture
 
That is definitely your photo, without a doubt.
