Credit Where Due On A Great Photo

I got a note from a wonderful photographer in Texas taking me to task in nicer terms than I probably deserved for running this photo of Barack Obama last month without providing proper credit:

The photograph was snapped by Matthew C. Wright at the Texas Observer Blog and, as much as this picture will undoubtedly be desired by Barack Obama supporters in the coming months, I urge anyone wanting to use it to contact Matthew and find out what consideration he expects for his valuable -- and copyrighted -- work.

I would also encourage you to drop my his dedicated photography site to get a look at more of his outstanding work.
