You edited a photo without the permission of the copyright holder, or even knowing who they are??

Natalia offers a special section on her website where she posts raw files for everyone's practice use...then provides the link in the Retouching forum.

I have a feeling the OP dl'd some of the images then forgot who had supplied them.

To the OP...wouldn't the metadata from the image give you copyright info/name of the photographer? Or was it not included? I know in this case it was Natalia...but for future use?

lol, it was posted here in the samples area for practice, my Windows crashed and no longer have access to the RAW file folder with the photog name, only psd. so I'm hoping the MM community can help out

Answer is above with link...Natalia Taffarel.

Hi all, just need a quick favor. Edited this photo below without noting the photographer's name (stupid!). I've since edited and would like to request for use for portfolio, does anyone know who snapped this?

Will delete thread after identified.

Thanks
Mike
UPDATE: Found the photog, now to figure out how to delete this thread

I don't think you can. Glad you got the info. Maybe a mod can lock it...or just let it die on its own.
