I regret that this notice has become necessary.  There are a number of people on the World Wide Web, who are blatantly copying and using my Photographs on the web and particularly on a well known Auction site.  Please be advised that
      1.  I spend many hours producing the best possible images for my Web Site
      2.  All my Photographs are Copyrighted.  If you wish to use them then you
           should ask permission and be prepared to pay a Royalty commission
      3.  All my Photographs are now watermarked, so any attempt to use them
           will automatically be notified to me.
      4.  Whilst I do feel flattered that these people consider my images worthy of
           stealing, this is exactly what it is - theft.
      5.  I do not see why these lazy people should freely benefit from my hard work.

So, please take note and remember that what may seem to be an innocent act is, in fact, against the law in most countries.  This applies not only to my images but other's also.

                                  THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION
