Flickr Accidentally Deletes Photographer’s Account and Almost 4000 Photos
bindermichi Flickr Pro Account as of February 1, 2011
Unfortunately, Flickr has been categorized lately as having a bit of a hair trigger when it comes to deleting photographers’ accounts as a result of an alleged violation of the Flickr Terms of Service. According to numerous reports, once an account is deleted, it’s deleted. Period.
That “shoot first, ask questions later” corporate attitude appears to have caught up with the photo sharing service today in a very bad way. According to Mirco Wilhelm (aka Flickr Pro user bindermichi), a Flickr staff member accidentally deleted his account when Wilhelm reported abuse by another Flickr member. [Read more…]

Wildlife Photographers Will Do Anything to Get the Shot
This video just about takes the cake for me. Kudos to the photographer for keeping cool during the “attack.”
Do you have a wildlife photography encounter to rival this one?

Twitter, Lawyers and Your Photos
I had decided to sit this one out . . . but there sure has been a lot of name-calling, face-making and side-taking, so I thought I would try to clear the air a little bit by offering up my opinion on the matter.
While I am a lawyer, I am not your lawyer and this is an editorial commentary on newsworthy issues rather than legal advice. Remember that one too – unless you’re paying a lawyer, you aren’t really getting legal advice, and what you are getting on blogs, forums and, for that matter, Twitter is worth just what you paid for it. Seriously, remember that the next time you want to rely on someone’s advice on a forum. The judge won’t be too keen on a printout of a blog post when you hand it to him as “evidence.”
Ok, with that out of the way, let’s dig into this Twitastrophe. And, if you’ve made it this far, and don’t know what I mean when I say the word “Twitter,” feel free to skip this post altogether. ;-) [Read more…]

By leveraging your network with a few simple initiatives, shooters can become sellers and boost their bottom line. [Read more…]
Reader Photos – Sunday, August 15, 2010
It’s time for our weekly break from the gear for a few minutes so we can enjoy another round of reader photos from the Photography Bay Flickr Group.
One of the things that I really enjoy about these sifting through these photos every week is seeing all the different kinds of cameras that people use – from point and shoots, to iPhones, to DSLRs and medium format cameras. This all just goes to show that it’s really not about the camera. That lightning photo at the top from sumoetx? Shot with a compact Canon PowerShot A720 IS.
As much as we all love cameras, lenses and other gadgets, it’s not about the gear.
