contax-t3 (1) by QmungousPhoto.com, on FlickrOne of my goals as a photographer was to win the EarthShots.org "Photo of the Day" contest. It's an honor because each day's photo is incredible and they have a very wide reach.
TODAY, my photo "The Crack" is the Earth Shots "Photo of the Day!"

So I found that an image of mine has been used by a MAJOR company in one of their employee training products without my permission. Anyone know a good copyright lawyer?
EDIT: Disregard. Got a call from their legal dept this morning. I'd expected a simple cease and desist, but they offered to pay me my normal single-use electronic media license fee of $500 bones instead.
