Giving Artists Credit

In starting a blog, I did as many do: I googled myself and my websites. What did I find? Photos from Do Life Right scattered on various other sites around the world (more than a dozen countries, actually, so I'm quite flattered). In case anyone is interested, it is this photograph that is the most popular. I know for a fact that only I took the photograph because the saguaro in question is not in a public location, it is my front yard. Aren't I lucky? It's true, I didn't put the word copyright all over the photograph. However, credit should always be given where credit is due. When you take a photograph or other image from a website, you should always state your source. Consider this my plea as an artist to everyone out there that is tempted to "steal" other's work. I don't mind other people displaying my work, but I would like my name or website listed as the source. Thanks so much!
