Hi there. I used your image for a recent post on my blog: www.meli-mello.com/?p=17 although I had initially found it for a news program I am working on for this site: www.quantumshift.tv, the one with your image hasn't be posted yet but I will let you know when it is - it is an amazing image!

I'm glad my photo is proving useful. In the UK plastic bags are always free, and shop assistants put my purchases in them even though I don't want them to do so, because I've brought my own bags.

I pointed the camera and pressed the button - it's not contrived in any way
