Without telling me. It's licensed right for what they did, but I would liked at least a "hey, we're gonna use this." though. Something else to add to my port.

well he said it was "licensed right" so I'm assuming he sold it to them.

it'd hosted on flickr, so I'm going to assume he has it listed under creative commons which means, he didn't get paid

I thought the exact same thing. But it fits the story. Also, if you shoot for any publication you'll soon realize that photographer and editor rarely agree.

[Valence]

ahh ok. You put it in a creative commons area on flickr fully expecting people to use them and specify which rights people can have (free use, use with recognition, etc)

so most creative commons on flickr looks like free stock photography for businesses.
