Artist's Comments

The most photographed landscape in S.A. The view of table mountain from Bloubergstrand. I thought I would go get some stock shots yesterday and the sky did this...

5D mk II
16-35mm @ 21mm
F16
1.6s
Lee 0.9 soft grad nd

I thought I would treat my supporters with a 900px resolution which I rarely do, but unluckily the 3 watermarks. This is like a suitcase filled with gold for image thieves in the local media.

Wow, this is really impressive, I just love the soft tone of red and magenta! Great capture, the amazing light adds to it.

It's a pity you're worried about thievery. I would think a standard (albeit invisible) watermark and perhaps even a registered copyright would be enough.

I would've given it higher praise if you hadn't given me the impression of being a burned photographer.

The theft of intellectual property forces me into taking these steps and then people like my work less:(

Great. Those watermarks are so gentle that could be removed in photoshop with no problem. I don't know if it will stop art thieves.

I have the same problem. I used watermarks but people hate me for this. I don't know which method is correct :(

Is it the 16-35mm II or not ?

The 2 in the corners are easily removable, but the one on the mountain should stop most people.
