If something seems too good to be true, that's probably because it is. A great example of this was sent to us by a reader earlier this week when he found one of his photos had been purchased for use by an Austrian publication. Great news, right? Well, not entirely.

Humor plays well when it comes to photography. And in some cases it may come to haunt you as one of your own images. One person found out that sometimes cheap doesn't mean exactly what you think it may mean.
