Carl T. BergstromWell this sort of sucks. An online vendor is using my photographs in their "Crows" 2024 calendar without permission.
Also, the second photo is a raven, not a crow.

Would love to hear your tips, Alex.
I don't care about the money side of things — there's no money to be made here. But it does annoy me. The vendor is not based in the US, and appears to do this at scale.

That’s so annoying. I’d send a DMCA takedown request to the web host. Even though DMCA is a U.S. law, in many countries they honor notices anyway.
Failing that, you can send copyright notices to Google and Bing, and they’ll block the pages in their search results, which also hurts the SEO of that domain.
