Is it okay to post someone else's picture on this site without the person being aware of it?
The photographers name would be cropped out of the picture.

This picture was a contest submission and has also been posted on their personal Twitter site.

I don't know the person who took the picture and I or anyone I know, have any involvement with the contest.

Asking only because I want to see what other members here would have to say about the picture that the photographer is claiming that no Photoshop was involved.

The picture is of a bird flying low over calm water and there is a "mirror" reflection of the bird.

To me, there are a couple of things that don't look quite right in the reflection.

It would be far better to post a link.

After that, what happens? Will it matter in a few years?

There are forum rules concerning this...

When you see my camera gear you'll think I'm a pro.
When you see my photos you'll know that I'm not.

Posting someone else's picture is only allowed on POTN if you have permission from the photographer.

From POTN's Image Posting rules:

- Do not post another photographer's photos without permission from that photographer. Any photos violating copyright laws will be removed.
