<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-56414" src="https://ontarioexploration.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/foundonartandhomenet.png" alt="" width="382" height="442" />One of my photos was included in an article about abandoned houses, on a site called <a href="https://artandhome.net/abandoned-homes/">Art & Home</a>.They added it from Pinterest, known for being a great source of photographs (I’m joking). So there is no attribute or link to me.
It bugs me that I don’t seem to have my original image file for this photo (and most of the others from this house) any more. Every image I have is shrunken, smaller than my original. I shrunk them for posting online and maybe the big originals were lost somewhere along the way. I keep hoping I will turn them up.
As far as the Pinterest thing, what can you do? There’s a lot of theft online, intentional and unintentional. Easier to just post the image than backtrack it to the source. Even if you find a source, how can you know it is the right source. Things are pretty messed up. This is why I am working on watermarking images before I post any more of them. Where ever they wander, at least there will be something to show where they came from. In theory.
Want to find this house? You won’t. It was demolished years ago. Bradford, Ontario.
