@christain @ alicia : no, it is without my permission... this site uses many stolen pictures apparently. Someone wrote to me an email about, and I contacted them, their host, the flickrstaff... no results for the moment. Thanks for your message.

Well - I would never have seen your photo if it wasn't featured in Smashing Magazine. I definitely think they should have asked permission, but really: all PR is good PR. I liked your shot more before I read your bitchin'...

I'm another one of those who found this picture through Smashing Magazine and I'm quite happy that I did. I'm not so sure that it's stealing if others only show your picture without modification and link to the source properly.. I would be worse if someone took your pictures and made a blog banner or commercial from it.

But I'll have to agree that's it's really rude towards the creators if you can't contact them and have your featured photos removed.

I wouldn't say its stolen if its not taken from you. Still, its a nice thing for them to contact you. Maybe they earn money, but I don't see any ads there. I know quite a numbers of people are grateful (by their comments in their flickr page) when they are featured, and some are not so happy about it. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Does this fall under fair use? I don't know. Lets say if I put HP logo in a page and all I do is critic/complements the logo, that would be under fair use, I believe. I'm not sure about this since every pictures in any magazine should be compensated...

The most professional thing for them to do with all artists featured in their magazine is to establish a working relationship.

Your shot is absolutely amazing. I'm stunned. I hope you find good uses for it elsewhere, and I wish you the best.

I came across this on stumbleupon and it made me stop. i guess i've gotten desensitized to photography, so it takes something else to get me to stop. this is spectacular. I wanted to download it for use as a desktop background, but I completely understand what you dealt with. just wanted to commend you on the composition and idea.

I was searching for "umbrella" and came across this stunning picture. Great job. Sorry someone stole from you. It is very upsetting when someone rips off your work without credit. You have a great photostream.
