Copyright is difficult on this website, so I never would upload captioned pictures here. If you had soem sort of copyright protection like a watermark or something it might be better. Just a suggestion.

Well, anything I upload with a VIRIN on it is US Government Property, i just get photo credits. All these images can be downloaded from a DOD website at high-res, so if someone really wanted the photos for themselves all they have to do is go to the website and dowlnoad it. If they get caught trying to pass it off as their own work than, well they will just have to answer to the US Government! So im not too worried about someone stealing my work, cause it is government property anyways!

When I was deployed to Malaysia I worked with a civillian who was attached to a unit for the Smithsonian Air and Space magazine. He was an independant photographer who said he didnt upload to sites like this. I asked him why, and he had said that people still will take his imagery and maybe because he was an independant photographer, he was more worried than us, who has the DoD site. I don't know, I'm just passing information I guess.

Creating a pisture with you and a picture I shot of a world war 2 statue shot which is quite in the same position. I found it funny coz I saw you shot the same day I took mine.
