I am not trying to stir Les, with a file name like that the image had to be taken from Flickr where the exif is already available to see and you haven't commented on/liked any of the threads out there where I have posted this image before.
I have many times in the past downloaded another's image to edit it (providing they have Edit my images set to Yes) but I always delete it after I have posted it for them to see. Storing someone's photo for long periods and forgetting who's it was is a sure fire way to get into this predicament.
Maybe you didn't do it intentionally but I have been hyper vigilant about my images recently after a couple local businesses began using some of my shots without permission in the last few months. Adding to that I think the fact I have known you from the web for a long time might have added to my response as I frankly felt a little betrayed. Yes I could have contacted you first but I was a bit irate this morning, might have cooled off a bit now but what happened still isn't acceptable and I have to notice the sad lack of an apology in your response.
