I have my plants in a greenhouse with a 63% shade cloth on top... no fluorescent lights. There are no shade trees near the greenhouse. I do have incandescent lights in the greenhouse that I sometimes keep on at night during the coldest winter nights for a little extra heat.

No one has a copyright on leaves. No-one has a copyright on William Morris's "Willow Bough" either, as I hope I explained clearly enough the other day : ) . And I'd be interested to learn how many contemporary fabric and wallpaper designers go to the trouble of copyrighting their work... By the way, here's an interesting article from the V&A about wallpaper and the "ransacking of past styles" (below). From which, "The V&A' s collections were brought together with the specific aims of inspiring good design and offering the best of the past as well as the present to inspire and elevate the tastes of designers and manufacturers, and also of consumers. Morris himself adapted patterns from textiles which he saw in the V&A in the 1860s, and wallpaper designers have continued to use the Museum's historic papers and textiles as a resource, copying or modifying them to produce period collections." The article includes a detail from some Osborne & Little wallpaper, c1975, adapted from William Morris's Willow design for printed cotton (about 1895). The V&A's page for the 1970s fabric notes that Osborne & Little's "range of wallpapers and fabrics has always included adaptations of Victorian patterns, as well as their own original designs. They have often used the collections at the V&A as a source of ideas." Here is a link that might be useful: V&A article,

First of all, you must read the membership account agreements very closely. Per their rules, on many sites the mere act of posting a photo places it in "Public Domain". As a rule I watermark all my photos before printing them or posting them online, even if I only intend to put the photo in my personal album. While on the subject of Personal Albums, whenever I take a series of shots at some point of interest I generally select one shot which is the title page for the grouping. I then add a title that indicates where the photo and/or group of photos was taken, and quite often I add captions. By example, I am attaching a photo of me that was actually taken by my GF while she and I were on an outing to a local wild game farm. I use PHOTOSCAPE, a free download from Google to add the text. While PHOTOSCAPE is primarily a very powerful, user friendly photo editing program I find adding text to be almost a no-brainer. To add text you open the photo in the editor, click the button for "Objects" and a box will appear where you type in the text you want to add, then you select the type of font and the color of the font. There is a box there to select the font size, but i generally ignore that because as you type the font it will show up in the center of your print outlined by a dotted line box with little arrows on the corners. If you click and drag the arrows you can drag the text to whatever size you want on the print. You then click and drag the text box to where you want to place it, and you can even rotate the text 360 degrees for special effect or to slightly slant your watermark. To get Photoscape just put the name photoscape in the search bar on your web browser home page and it will refer you to a free download site. I might add that even though this is a free download, it is a full lifetime version, not one of those annoying trials with the incessant pop ups reminding you to buy the program. In fact, it is entirely free of spam or popups, period. The only thing I would caution is, make sure you are getting the download directly from Google as others may use it to entice you to sign up for their pop up & spam nonsense.
