Thanks Herman
I started adding a copyright notice to my images about 4 or 6 months ago. In Australia, copyright is automatic and there is no requirement to add a notice but I found my photos, particularly the early morning seascapes, appearing on a number of Christian and Creationist sites, used without my authorisation or credit to me. Worse still, some were being credited to other Christian/Creationist sites that had previously stolen my work.
I am sorry, but I don't find theft very Christian so everthing posted on the internet now carries a notice.
