A garden of medicine

You know @btc.ctb , I just spent like 2 hours going through years of photos and images I have taken in my own and other people cannabis farms. (before I owned a dispensary, I was in the black market and a photographer as well) and people would blindfold me to come shoot their rooms.

BUT-- I can NOT find the original of this file, so i do think you are right. I had pulled it from my old dispensaries Facebook page and thought it was from a grow in WA in 2013- I can't find the files I thought it was, so.. for some reason, I thought it was mine, not my intention to plagorize to the original photographer, I would have sited this person had I known. Thanks for keeloing me honest, it was an honest mistake, i have taken thousands of cannabis photos- but try and only put original work on Steemit... As a grower and photographer, i feel like a dork..

My intention is to use Steemit as an outlet for original matierial- I see this might have been a K. Kushman grow, I happened to have bought a dispensary from one of his friends, so it might have happened that way.

Anyway, here are some ORIGINALS to redeem myself.

I thought the original post went with this harvest.

Here are some others from many grows in many places..

Yeah for sure, I will be double checking more carefully. I have thousands of cannabis photos from either cannabis I grew or cannabis that was in my dispensary. I still think the original photo looks just like a grow I shot in 2012/2013 but have no RAW data, so, I must just have smoked something similar and got it stuck in my brain --lol

I take crediting photos seriously, I am a writer as well, and would not want to see my work under someone else's name. I don't mind being called out, but I had to go WAY back in my backup drives before giving up and thinking he is right and that image was on my facebook in other capacities.

I have non-cannabis photography here-

Just saying if you want to edit and change the photo you only have 7 days. After the payout you can't edit or delete a post

Thanks, @shamic, I made some changes to the text to show it is NOT my photography. I think it is a great shot. I am only a few days into being on Steemit, so as a newbie, I think I will leave the photo up to hopefully teach others to be more careful of content creation.

I am not sure of all of the points @ackza was making in his reply, as he quickly and randomly; touches on clones, rock wool, Instagram and a few other things about rising up and taking over the world ;-)

I have never had Instagram and don't need any clones, but his "Burn" was taken as an excited user possibly on his phone, while driving or something; with a need to let it out as fast as he could in a random format. I took the positives and worked out from there.

I have never been afraid to make a mistake and own it, I have never been worried about my honor in any system I have worked.

If my leaving this up, shows another Newbie to be more careful about files that say things like "photos from (name of my dispensary here)" and to check our work before getting stoned and posting some fun "weed porn," then I will leave it up.

I never said in this post it was my photo, but it was an honest mistake when I grabbed it. I could have just denied I tried to pass it off as my shot, but the truth is told, I DID think it was a shot of a grow I took. So, I will own that mistake.

@shamic, take a look and any corrective criticisms as to what you think about my post edit are more than welcome.

As a newb, I dont want to run from each mistake I make. There is no learning in just deleting and not owning the mistake.

kindest regards,
e

I also did not know you only have 7 days for changes. That is GREAT knowledge to pass on. Is this just for photos or any post made? Sorry if this is a "duh" type question.
