Just saying in this case, it's a bit over-kill. It's like putting a car alarm on a rusty geo metro...what's the point? They're pictures he took in a grocery store. I could fully understand him wanting to protect the security of the nice pictures he takes of his dogs, of the scenery in his area or of his plants. These are situations that would warrant a watermark since a lot of effort went into obtaining these shots.
And if you look at his response to Jarred's post....he's jumping on him for a wink, accusing him of joking about the watermark (which was meant to be an honest compliment). I really don't intend to insult anyone here (despite what some people think...I feel like people often misread my posts with inflections that were never intended), just make a point at the frivolous nature of this situation. Just wish people would lighten up a little instead of being so uptight all the time about little things. I mean, come on, learn to laugh a little and enjoy life, right?
I don't mean to downplay things here....I really do appreciate your photos and all your contributions on the site, Mitchel. And to get back on topic, that is an excellent selection that I would dream to have in my area. The only bananas I've seen in the grocery store here in STL are regular gran nain and organic gran nain. At least in Iowa we have baby bananas, red bananas and plantains at most stores. So what do saba bananas taste like, anyway? I've never even had plantains to be honest.
