Based on some recent incidents, let me reiterate: If you are the owner of a photo that appears on this site and wish it removed, you don't need to get all legal and send threatening letters and takedown notices; just email me with the photo's URL or leave a comment on the offending post and I will gladly remove it.

P.S.: topping a pizza with pineapple is neither witchcraft or alchemy, it's just nonsense and bad taste :- )
