There’s a website out there that’s using one of my pictures! Ok, so I’m not actually famous, but it is pretty cool. It’s a first and I was flattered that someone was interested in a shot I took. It’s also cool because it’s proof that creative commons licensing works.  

Here’s how it all went down: The operator of the Sweet Sardinia site contacted me a few months ago after finding the shot on flickr. She wanted to know if I’d mind if she used my picture to advertise the island’s attractions. I was impressed that she had asked, since, let’s face it, I’m unlikely to have found out if she had.  Secondly, because I got engaged there this summer, Sardinia has a special place in my heart. In fact, the whole thing went down not far from this particular rock. I was more than happy to let her have it, though requested that she credit me (which she did).

The whole thing has given me a nice, warm feeling. Aaah…
