Hi folks. I thought I'd post this as a bit of advice for people posting their lovely looking aquascapes online.
I would advise that people consider subtly adding a watermark/adding their name to a corner of their photos when they post them online. This at least means that you will get some level of credit if someone downloads your photo and posts it to Facebook or another site.
I was prompted to post this today as I saw a UKAPS member's photo uploaded to a random Facebook page's photo album with no credit given (I've let them know).
Conversely, this also applies to posting other peoples photos on UKAPS or anywhere else. Please give credit where possible. It's only fair to the owner of the photo
