Hi!

I recently stumbled across some of your photography on Flickr. I was specifically interested in the image here: 

I would like to add your image to the Wikipedia entry: 

To do so you must license the image under a less restrictive license. Specifically, permissions granted on the image must be compatible with the licensing of all other content on Wikipedia. You will retain the actual copyright, but you grant permission for others to use, copy, and distribute your image.

Two options that meet these requirements are: - Attribution Creative Commons - Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons

Setting these licenses for images in Flickr is easy! 1. Sign in to flicker at: http://www.flickr.com/signin/ 2. Goto the specific image 3. Locate the "Additional Information" section in the right sidebar. 4. The first line should explain your current licensing either: - "Some rights reserved" or    - "All rights reserved" 5. Click "(edit)" at the end of that line. 6. Under "Select the license" locate the 4th and 5th options below "None (All rights reserved)": - "Attribution Creative Commons" and - "Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons" 7. Select either one of these options. 8. Click Save.

To Set a default license for new uploads, sign in and goto: http://www.flickr.com/account/prefs/license/

To set a license for all images already on your account, goto: http://www.flickr.com/account/prefs/license/batch/

This will ensure that images you create can be included in the Wikipedia Project. I urge you to do so.

Thanks so much, I am anxiously awaiting your reply.
