I love this picture.

He didn't throw me in, but did cause me to end up with a soggy foot, the great tit.

But I love this picture so very much. Thank you.

Not to prod any sort of sibling rivalry or anything, but I did see this today on the front page of the guardian web site with your sis listed with the photo cred. (!)

Huh.

I'll look into it. I didn't agree to that.

mintea - they had the correct info - I told them it. they knew it wasn't my photo, I was in the photo, I'm hardly going to claim to have taken it! They knew who they were supposed to credit, and have been made aware not to use it again, in any other circumstance - even with credit.

Anna - well yes it does seem rather obvious that its not your photo, but only to someone like me who has already seen it! (of course it is very possible to take a photo with yourself in it... the technology exists). I just thought it was odd, and wanted Meg to know. I'm not blaming you!

Why can't they use it again?

Because they shouldn't have miscredited it, and it shouldn't leak into the general library because it was only needed for that one occasion

I'm very shy and ugly and unphotogenic and don't let people take pictures of me often - except my very wonderful sister sometimes - so when they suddenly asked for a picture that was 'me in San Francisco' I was very short of options. I love this photo and it was by far the best available - but I am quite shy of people using one of me and my partner anyway.

So I think it's ok probably for then it use it with that story, as previously agreed with the photographer - but never anything else.

I know you're not blaming me - I just feel really bad that my sister went uncredited: she's a very talented photographer and deserves all the credit in the world, so I feel really defensive if something's gone wrong that I could have made go better.
