Photo Permission.

Hey Guys,

I was wondering if one of the administrators gave The Telegraph permission to use our recent photo contest winner by Giesle.

I know its great that Chameleons are getting some publicity. But I know either Giesle or These forums has property claim to the photo.

I know I've seen the photo on reddit but still if the newspaper is getting revenue from the picture this wonderful forum is owed its due.

Do a search for "Scott Cromwell mantis" in images and find more interesting images. He has had quite a few photos picked up. Usually a bigger hit in the UK, but once they pick up steam, they usually are picked up locally. I have provided a few "models" for his photography.

Thanks for the comments. Yes, I send a news agency in the UK my photos for a story once in awhile, and they have always done better than this group of pictures....I believe I sent them 5 for this series. They just went out last week, so maybe they will still sell, and maybe they have sold in the paper versions of different papers and just not the online versions. I will just wait to hear back from the news agency. That Violin mantis you sold me did pretty well in the papers, Scott(patrickfraser).
