I think a justifiable watermark is one for advertising. Like the url for a website, etc.

Wee man, huh? I'll take a look at it.

Watermarks are only good in my opinion if they are like a painters signature and you sell your work

As the posters before have said, it's really easy to crop them out. But at least you have made some sort of an effort to protect your pictures.

You know what's funny, I'd never seen a dump by Tennant before and sort of thought he was a dirty lomographing hipster/GWC/that guy by the amount of gear-related posts he made But he's good, better than me, love that one of the bench.

Well I'm back again with urbex(ish) photos This time I ended up in a culvert which is a tunnel that is used to move water (river) underneath an obstacle (in this case a city) its split into several parts, theres the part where the water goes through underneath with sewage pipes on either side and a part that can be walked on, which was used as an air raid shelter in WW2, it was pitch black very dusty and rather smelly in places.

Christ, what settings did you have the first picture on? I can't seem to get pictures of individual drops like that. They look great though.

[QUOTE=Officer brown;36141212]Christ, what settings did you have the first picture on? I can't seem to get pictures of individual drops like that.

Which one did you just use? I downloaded one on chrome, but it doesn't work on the fp thread, I have to go all the way to flickr and then the "view all sizes" section just to open the extension. Then it says no exif data
