[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 114478, member: 9521"] Here's the situation. Back in October I was at the park with my grandson and as usual I had my camera with me. He was playing with the kids there and one of them, a very cute little girl that we've played with many times, was there with her nanny. When she saw me with the camera she started hamming it up and so I photographed her. The pictures are great, not only is she super cute but she had on a cute little sun hat and the photos were worthy of framing. About a month or so later I saw the girl and her nanny at the park and told her the photos came out great and gave the nanny my card to give to the girls parents to tell them to email me so that I can forward them these great photos of their daughter. I didn't hear back from the parents and pretty much forgot about it. Then about 3 weeks ago I received a very snarky email from the mom saying she was unaware that photos were being taken of her daughter (using multiple question marks after many sentences) and to provide her with the pictures immediately. So I wrote her back explaining who I am (we've met several times in the past) and how I was at the park one day and my grandson and her daughter playing together and I got a couple of excellent photos of her daughter. I added thumbnail photos to the email and said if she liked them I would provide them with the full megapixel file. I could understand she might have received the message in an unintended way so I tried very hard to reminder her who I am and how I came to have photos of her daughter. A week later I hear back from her and it's a letter telling me to never take photos of her daughter again without her permission and to please forward her the full megapixel files. My first thought was to write her back with an equally snarky letter but I decided I would just ignore it and forget about the entire episode. You know, I was trying to be nice in offering them these images and so after that email I no longer want to give them away. Well, today (about 2 weeks later) I received a third email telling me that she hasn't received the photos and would I please send them right away. I'm torn between just telling her to go jump in a lake or to write this off as a lesson learned, tell her I didn't appreciate the attitude in her emails and that I do not need her permission but give her the files anyway or ignore this email like the last one? Not sure which avenue to take on this one. Anyone else run into something like this? [/QUOTE]
