The fragile and the wild 
Hi Catherine,
Thanks for your efforts on this issue. Could you please put a caption right on the image? ” Black Cliff, Courtesy ©Garth Lenz” If you are able to do something so the image cannot be easily clicked and draged to someone’s desktop that would be great. My images sometimes show up in the strangest places. Sometimes in ways which do not reflect my intentions and often in ways that undermine my work. I could send you a file that would have this caption embedded. I admire your commitment to this issue. All best,
Garth
