the other day i “offically” released the images from my online photo gallery into the public domain. this was something i wanted to do way back, but finally felt compelled to do so after getting an email from someone in sweden who politely asked me to use one of my sky pictures.

anyway, today I got a request from someone asking to use my kazakhstan photos in an educational website called world infozone–even with my recently added public domain dedication notices (which they commented on).

anyway, they’ve put some of my pictures up already and said they may use the ones from tanzania.

how did they find me? just search google for “photos kazakhstan” and it turns out i’m ranked third.

talk about cool. (creative commons in effect!)
