I think if I were you, I would be annoyed! Especially since the author of the article felt inclined not give to credit where credit is due. Just my .02 cents worth.

Hi All,

I am a little embarrassed because I've been of the list for over a year;
I've been so preoccupied with setting up business here in the USA and then
trying desperately to keep up with it.

My embarrassment is mad eworse by the fact that I am here to querie
something rather than to contribute.

I have just received the latest BCI magazine, and I see that in the first
article on penjing there is an illustration of a western bonsai. A European
bonsai. In fact one of my former bonsai.

Not only is this tree not a penjing, but the photograph was reproduced
without my knowledge, without credit and, as far as I am aware, without the
permission fo the copyright holder (Best of European Bonsai1).

Should I be honoured that my tree was included? I think not. Should I be
annoyed? Dunno.

Ho hum....

Colin Lewis
