decors

too early for next week's theme but fit right in with the red theme this week. these are decors i found in one of the ladies' desk at the office. i had to upset their desk decorations just to photograph this. tee-hee! it's a shoe and matching purse and a ball. i thought they're cute together.

a photo i took at one of our office events was used in an article about our law firm featured in a national newspapers' supplement about the 25 top employers of greater toronto. there was no credit and i was not asked if the photo could be used. the no credit i could understand after i leafed through the entire supplement, as none of the photographs featured were credited to anyone. where i would have normally put my watermark would have been cut off by the publisher anyway. but the office surely didn't ask me if they could use it. it would've been nice if they did since it was for outside publication. i don't mind if it was internal, everyone knew who took the photo anyway. but then again...

thank you for your kind visits and comments; know that they are greatly appreciated.
well that just seems wrong ... it would really bother me !
love this christmas shot

Super festive capture, great colour. It's very bothersome when your pictures are used without permission!

Red and green are really the colours of Christmas so good to see the elegance put into this shot!

Captures the essence of Christmas with a modern twist. Lovely shot Sum.
We're all sorry to hear about your stolen copy rights. As you mention, a watermark is really your only defence in a world where your (hard/fun) work can be copied and pasted at the drop of a hat, even from these pages!! We tend to put our watermarks on the edges so as not to ruin the shot for our 365 friends, but that might all change if we're unlucky. Just look at is as a compliment and let it spur you on to better things.

I like the red/green decor in the background: keeps the whole scene coherent. What is it with the shoes?

Nice capture! I hope your office-mate didn't mind you disrupting her decorations!

Great that your picture was used, but how annoying that they didn't get your consent or give you credit for it.

Very cute and seasonally festive! Is that legal that they used your photo without your consent? I think they owe you some sort of compensation.

Excellent comp and focus, love the bokeh too. Congrats on PP. Bummer about no credit for the image from work.
