IMPORTANT NOTICE!
© Copyright Notice

It's been brought to my attention that many images on this website were taken and used without permission ... some were slightly altered and made into "tubes" for shareware graphics programs and then claimed to be the works of those who took them ...and others have been found in galleries for sale. IT IS ILLEGAL TO DO THIS.

While we believe some of this activity may have taken place unintentionally because persons do not understand how copyright law protects the creator's works of art, photography and other intellectual property ... it is still unlawful to take these works without permission, and we will protect our rights to these works.

Please don't do this ... All of the images in this website are copyrighted original works of art by Jeri Ann Ray-Payne, and are protected by United States and international copyright law. These images have been digitally watermarked so that they can be identified if used without permission.

Be reminded that these images are here for your enjoyment, but please don't copy, print or distribute any of the images without permission. If you have a special use in mind, please contact us. Some of the images may be sold as prints, and others may be used electronically or within screensaver and presentation applications, and all are available at reasonable costs.

If you need images for a charitable reason, nonprofit, please request special permission. We support causes that foster the environment, humanities, education and social justice ...

Thank you for your support.
