Obtaining explicit permission from the post authors is encouraged.

Would an explicit gratitude exspression constitute “explicit permission”?

Respect their work and give them the choice.

But I do. Did you read the answer above your comment? Here is again…

he/she can simply ask not to be featured anymore…

That's not explicit permission.

Are you asking an explicit permission for a resteem?

I am talking about getting explicit permission to put these photos in these posts made by @photo-trail.

You are talking of mission impossible. Anyone who doesn't wish can explicitly say so. All others are giving implicite consent because they have benefit of it, despite you may not see it.

Commenting to ask for consent on someone's post isn't impossible, especially when you're already there to copy the image URL. You might be providing some benefit to these photographers but you're right, I mostly don't see it. I don't see upvotes on their posts, but I see some pretty big ones on these Photo Selection posts. That's not curation in the spirit of Steem.

No problem with that if the authors have consented to their photos being presented here though.

Interesting. You see that they don't have more upvotes, but you dont see that I comment EVERY post before I feature it. If someone thinks it is not in his/hers interest, he/she can reply and refuse. That is not enough for you?

Then the real problem for you is a curating reward. Are you telling me that it is immoral to get curating reward greater than a reward of a single contributor? If it is so, which contributor would it be?

And if you want to measure rewards, then measure a sum of all rewards that featured photographers got for a day, and then it wouldn't look so big. And I repeat, I do not get all the rewards from the @photo-trail account. It's a group of people. That reward is splitted among many.

Explicit gratitude exspression? Of course not.

Are you serious?

So do you think it is legal if I take a logo from a famous firm and put it on my t-shirts that I will be selling if I write them email how much I like the logo and its colors?
