This is crazy. That is absolutely my photograph. Anybody who says it's their's is lying. All my family and friends know it's mine. My youngest daughter was there when I took it. It was taken 15 years ago in the house I still live in. That's, my cat Charlie. He's dead now so I am going to look for a picture that proves it. In fact I probably have the original picture somewhere

I just took a picture of that window but I don't know how to post it here. Somebody clue me in.

I've posted that in my Photos section on my Facebook page in the past so I only assume it was taken from there.

Acountry330 You are exactly right. I was taught that at the New York Institute of Photography when it was a resident school. Mr. Champange kept telling me, "you have proved to me that you are more passionate about nature than you are photography and you will be one of the best." When I was in the National Park system I kept getting transferred because of my love for nature and the results of that love showing up in my photography. NPS has changed a lot and many of the folks I worked with have retired. But my pictures are still on the office walls.

I developed a saying after the first few years and I have seen the first statement on UHH. I read it in the posts. "Many photographers love photography for the sake of photography. Few are the photographers who love the experiences photography offers them."

You may need more than you think.

http://www3.ce9.uscourts.gov/jury-instructions/node/708


17.37 COPYRIGHT—DAMAGES—WILLFUL INFRINGEMENT
(17 U.S.C. § 504(c)(2))

An infringement is considered willful when the plaintiff has proved both of the following elements by a preponderance of the evidence:

1. the defendant engaged in acts that infringed the copyright; and

2. the defendant knew that those acts infringed the copyright, or the defendant acted with reckless disregard for, or willful blindness to, the copyright holder’s rights.

Comment

The statutory damage maximum for willful infringement is $150,000. 17 U.S.C. § 504(c)(2).



By Posting her photo on your photo stream you have engaged in 1) and 2) you have been informed that this infringes Marilyn's copyright.
There is a minimum for statutory damages too.

That's the window this was shot in. The split window and the porch have been replaced but that is my cat, those are my tress, my backyard and the partial fence you see in that picture has been replaced but it is still there. Look to the left and you see that the construction is still going on.

I also am the one who edited this picture. As I've said before it taken on a point and shoot years ago and the picture was too dark. I probably edited it Elements and when I downloaded my pictures I unfortunately didn't save the original although it is probably packed away somewhere. I am going to look got it. I am pissed that someone stole my picture and I am now being accused of stealing it back from the thief.

Do you think they really look the same?

You have the other photographs in the sequence that haven't been uploaded? Because Marilyn has them and this is not the first time she has fought and won.

There are only two parties to this current discussion, and only one can legitimately own the copyright. So far the preponderance of evidence suggests that the legitimacy is on Marilyn's side not yours. Now we can't be completely sure about that unless a formal investigation is done which would be expensive for all involved, but so far she seems to have a better set of evidence on her side. Who knows, perhaps she is some kind of super villain that can fake evidence, but so far I wouldn't bet upon your side for a whole bunch of reasons more substantial than you have presented so far. They are just unsupported claims.

Find and post your full resolution original with full Exif information for a start. Post other contemporary images of your property and cat. Preferably a sequence leading up to the final image. You should also be able to state exactly what equipment was used to take the photo and the precise time and data of its creation.

The questions you are asking in some of your recent threads imply a novice level of ability, not intermediate, which is inconsistent with the images you are posting and claiming as your own.

Perhaps you may have a future as a politician, or some kind of fashion sense that thinks orange really is the new black...

If you really think that you are being maligned inappropriately then the onus is now upon you to demonstrate your innocence, or at least a position to defend.
