Hi Loïc,
I can't seem to find your photos from the site that link takes me to, but I don't doubt your accusation. I've been paying attention as this has progressed and I've seen, with my own eyes, the issues people have addressed already.
If Mr. Millette is without fault I believe it would be very wise for him to prove so or at least acknowledge the situation, because (while I don't see his name in the officers of the Society for Siberian Irises) I do frequently speak with several of them. I also see the president of the American Iris Society is a director. I can't imagine he would be pleased to hear anyone affiliated with the Society for Siberian Irises is believed to be guilty of piracy. Theft is a serious allegation and is not something I tend to tolerate. The appropriate people could be notified if this isn't resolved.
In addition, if nothing is mended I will have lost any faith I might have had in the Millette Photomedia business. I'm an amateur-transitioning-to-professional photographer. I've recently made my first sale and have been published. My collection now contains well over 60,000 images and I have a lot of future dealings to make in this industry. I won't deal with, nor will I recommend dealing with, anyone that leaves me concerned.
I truly hope that it is all a misunderstanding. Things don't need to get any uglier and ties don't need to be severed.
