<gulp!> I thought we had until a week from Sunday. I should have looked at the
calendar to see when the date actually fell. :^|

I'm already editing two photo shoots from this week for work, with another
coming up on Monday. And I'm unusually busy with the computer part of my job
(the part that determines whether I actually get paid) just now. So I may be
amongst the missing this time. But I think Martha said she has her "M" shots
in order.

It could be titled, "My Martha Masterpiece".

I don't dare do that two months in a row!

: It could be titled, "My Martha Masterpiece".

Ya know, by one definition, everything she submits is an "M", isn't it?

How about a roll of Scotch tape? Is it still made by a company called
"Minnesots Mining & Manufacturing"?

Just shoot through a piece of any mottled, frosted, or textured glass.
Readily available at your local Home Depot, or Lowe's. No clean-up
required.

Anyway, I actually have something related to the "moth shot" in mind
for one of my submissions.

Just send a snapshot of Martha. She qualifies.

How about a photo of a month? We are certain they exist, but where is
the photographic evidence?

It doesn't matter what he submits. It'll be sure to be stolen from someone
else, like this one he stole.

http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/V982p2v7LkZWlRi3YMP0Mg?feat=directlink

When you hover your cursor on the "Belongs to" link, it clearly states
"Vance Lear".

Yet we find proof-positive that this image is owned and copyrighted by
someone else.

http://mothphotographersgroup.msstate.edu/species.php?hodges=08262

With this copyright notice clearly stated at the beginning of that page:
"Photographs are the copyrighted property of each photographer listed
Contact individual photographers for permission to use for any purpose."

I guess he fails to understand the meaning of the word "any".

Nothing but a low-life photo thief and troll, 100% confirmed.

Are known thieves allowed to submit photos to the SI? Maybe all the photos
submitted to the SI have been stolen. If one known-photo thief is allowed,
perhaps there's more, many more. Birds of a feather ....

Anyone who claims that one of the photos I've submitted to SI needs to
have his head examined. They have been better than the fuzzy,
out-of-focus rare moth shot that our Troll claims he shot, but only
just.

I would be extremely complimented if someone would steal one of my
efforts. Please.
