Miles Morgan (shithead, thief, and parasite supreme) has ignored the Miles Morgan Ultimatum; the next steps.

The next steps for Miles Morgan.


As you all know, Miles Morgan is a thief, a copyright violator, and completely lacking in shame or critical self-evaluation. You can see more about that here. He has stolen the images of other photographers, meaning to emulate the composition and style of these photographers as closely as possible (a copyright violation and a violation of common courtesy). One of these photographers is Marc Adamus. Now, Marc Adamus is a coward who refuses to protect his copyright. Why? Marc sells a ton of bogus photo tours, which provide a great deal of his income. He’s afraid that if he enforces his copyright, sales of photo tours will dwindle. 

 Anyway, you probably know all that already. Which brings us to the Miles Morgan Ultimatum (available here). We gave Miles Morgan 10 days to remove stolen images from Getty microstock and stop selling prints on his website. Predictably, he ignored us. That’s not surprising. When push comes to shove, many of the scum we write about here quietly continue doing whatever they were doing that drew our attention, and hoping that we’ll just go away. 

But we promised pain & suffering for Miles Morgan, and we intend to deliver. The main driver behind Miles Morgan’ ability to steal other peoples’ work and throw it away for pennies is his well-paying job. Now, like most assholes, Miles Morgan has no problem drawing 6 figures from his line of work, while doing everything possible to undermine someone else’s line of work. Such is hypocrisy and lack of empathy. Go try telling Miles to start working for, say, $16,000 (about 10% of what he probably earns now) a year. He’ll look at you as if you’re crazy. But he’s got no problem stealing someone else’s images and throwing them away for 10% or less of what they originally cost. 

So Miles Morgan needs to lose his cushy job at United Airlines. That will deliver a solid lesson to this scum and piece of shit. It will teach him to respect other peoples’ jobs and careers. With that in mind, the next week will see new websites launched to deal with Miles Morgan and United Airlines. It’s time for the whole public to know about this imbecile.

The Miles Morgan Ultimatum: addressing the theft, copyright violations, and outright dishonesty/lack of shame of Captain/Mr. Miles Morgan

The Miles Morgan Ultimatum


As you all know, Miles Morgan is a thief, a copyright violator, and completely lacking in shame or critical self-evaluation. You can see more about that here. He has stolen the images of other photographers, meaning to emulate the composition and style of these photographers as closely as possible (a copyright violation and a violation of common courtesy). One of these photographers is Marc Adamus. Now, Marc Adamus is a coward who refuses to protect his copyright. Why? Marc sells a ton of bogus photo tours, which provide a great deal of his income. He’s afraid that if he enforces his copyright, sales of photo tours will dwindle. 

 We don’t know if Miles Morgan has taken a Marc Adamus photo tour. It’s quite likely that he has. We do know, by his own words, that he got started in this whole thing by taking a Photo Cascadia/NWphototours.com photo workshop. We’ve covered Kevin Mcneal and Adrian Klein time and time again. They are nothing but scam artists, gleefully selling bogus photo workshops to scum who want nothing more than a point & click process of copying real photographers and appropriating their vision. A workshop is a great way to learn the basics of being an immoral, shameless thief. 
 
 And Miles Morgan is a thief, period. He has stolen landscape compositions and thrown them on microstock sites for pennies. Not only does this steal away income from the rightful photographer, but it also devalues images that used to be worth thousands (theoretically) and completely destroys any possibility of future, legitimate licensing by the original photographer. Why pay someone $500 for an image license when Miles Morgan has an exact copy for $5? 
 Anyway, many would agree that the time has come to put a stop to Miles Morgan, and make an example of him, as well. Which brings us to the Miles Morgan Ultimatum.

Miles Morgan has 10 days to remove all images from all stock sites he has placed them on. It doesn’t matter whether he has, or hasn’t stolen some of the images in question. He has demonstrated that he can’t operate in an honest and ethical manner. He must never again place any images on stock sites or attempt to sell any images. He must cease offering prints of any sort on his website. 

Once these 10 days are over, a campaign will be started to have Miles Morgan fired from his position at United Airlines. If he’s so willing to commit theft and financial terrorism against other photographers, he doesn’t deserve to benefit from a six figure income that’s completely protected from the ravages of scum like himself. The campaign will target both him and United Airlines, using advertising, websites, blogs, and social media to spread the word. It will be clear that all blame for the boycott is squarely the fault of Miles Morgan, and the boycott will end once he is fired. Attention will be drawn to the fact that a senior pilot engages in unethical behavior and theft, as well as the possibility that he consumes illegal substances for recreation or performance reasons (he does know Ryan Dyar, after all; come on!). 


Miles Morgan will be publicly exposed for the lying, thieving psychopath he is, and United Airlines will bear the great embarrassment of employing this imbecile. We have every reason to believe that this approach will succeed in getting Miles Morgan fired. Miles Morgan can crawl back in the cave he came from and keep his job, or he can see how he manages to pay the bills by stealing other people’s images, and selling them for pennies on microstock sites. We want to emphasize that this is not a joke. Should Miles Morgan ignore us and hope that all this just goes away, there will be hell to pay. Marc Adamus LIES 2.0 and Loserphotographers.com awaits proof that Miles Morgan knows when he’s been caught, and is willing to back down and do the right thing.

Miles Morgan, scum, thief, imbecile, and cretin, has not responded to our charges; no surprise there!

No response from scumbag Miles Morgan.


 The SCUM Miles Morgan is a fraud and a thief who has stolen the images of other photographers and is throwing them away for pennies on microstock sites (see here for more on that). Is he ashamed? Apparently not! Is he aware that what he is doing is wrong? Yes! He has invented rationalizations that make him feel comfortable about it. All THUGS & MORONS do that. They spew their pathetic rationalizations/lies on this blog, saying that stealing isn’t stealing, black is white, and the sun sets in the east & rises in the west. But none of that changes anything. Stealing another photographer’s images is still theft and copyright violation. No number of Flickr frauds can change that. 

 It comes as no surprise that Miles Morgan has ignored our charges and continues to rush headfirst into the bold new world of fraud and theft. He’s the type of “person” who only does what is right when a gun is pointed at his head. Take away the cops, and Miles Morgan will steal, cheat, lie, murder, basically do anything he wants. We feel that this has gone on long enough. Our Miles Morgan Ultimatum is being prepared and will be released in several days. It’s time to put a stop to Miles Morgan, permanently. Stay tuned for more.

Why THUGS & MORONS are so desperate to copy Marc Adamus images, among others.

Why copy Marc Adamus photos?



 We have asked ourselves this question, and we’re sure others have, too. Why are the THUGS and MORONS so desperate to copy Marc Adamus (and other notable photographers)? Why? Doesn’t a real artist create his own visions? 

 It turns out that these turds aren’t artists. Of course not. What they are is LOSERS who desperately desire to be famous. Fame requires talent (or a special sort of stupidity, but that’s not the fame they’re looking for). Since these bozos have no talents whatsoever, they feel that stealing someone else’s artwork and pretending it’s their own work is how they feel the fame will be had. Completely untrue, of course. The public looks at someone like Chris Moore MD or Miles Morgan and shake their heads in disgust. “Liar”. “Thief”. “Fraud”. “Pathetic imbecile”. These, and more, are the feelings the general public has for these disgusting LOSERS. And that’s as it should be. No one should celebrate a thief or a fraud. The idiots who comment on their bullshit on Flickr/photo.net/photosig are other idiots who don’t care that the image was stolen or lies were spewed about how the image was made. It’s, literally, a den of thieves.
 
 So it’s quite clear why THUGS/MORONS like “Captain” Miles Morgan or Chris Moore MD want to copy someone like Marc Adamus. In spite of his personality flaws, Marc Adamus is an artist (ignore gasps of horror from the THUGS & MORONS). Yes, he is. He might lie about his fame, bullshit about his “adventures”, and fail to protect his work from theft,  but he’s still an artist. Just not as good an artist as he thinks. Pretty good, but still. 

So anyway, THUGS & MORONS slobber over what they believe is Marc Adamus’ incredible fame. They “wants it” for themselves. Since they have no vision, no ability to create art of their own, they figure, “Oh, I’ll just buy a bunch of fancy gear, copy (steal) all those cool images I see online, and I’ll be famous too!”. We dare anyone to provide a valid rebuttal to this. The SCUM THUGS out there, the thieves and imbeciles like Miles Morgan and Chris Moore MD, know why they are stealing, and it’s for fame. 

 A real artist may copy some classic images to learn techniques, but his goal is to create his own vision. Not to replicate someone else’s vision. That is theft, and fraud. And ignore the bullshit, preposterous claims such as “you can’t copyright nature scenes”. No one has said you can. What is copyright-able, is the artist’s specific interpretation of a scene. The law clearly says this. Dozens of IP attorneys say this. We have linked to some of these pages. The THUGS & SCUM MORONS will not be convinced by this, however. They want to steal, and to hell with all the evidence that stealing is wrong. This is fame we’re talking about, damn it! Who cares if a professional photographer’s feathers are ruffled by the theft of his images, or if his family goes cold because he doesn’t make enough that month to pay the heating bill. The Fame of frauds like Miles Morgan or Chris Moore MD is simply more important.

Get Miles Morgan fired. A sample letter/ email YOU can send to United Airlines to let them know what you think of piece of shit Miles Morgan.

Get SCUM Miles Morgan fired!


Miles Morgan is scum. Period. He hides behind the supposed respect of being a senior pilot for United Airlines. But in the shadows, he’s a hypocrite and a thief, stealing the images of hardworking photographers and throwing them on microstock sites for pennies (see here for more on that). What can YOU do to rearrange the priorities of this collection of sewage and garbage? Write or email to his employer and let them know what YOU think of this fraud’s behavior. Here’s a sample letter you can use. Email it directly to United’s CEO. Airline captains must adhere to a certain standard of behavior, and that doesn’t include being a thieving terrorist who wages war against professional photographers:


Dear Glenn Tilton,
 As a frequent flier and a past United Airlines customer, I am writing to you to complain about the objectionable, immoral behavior of one of your employees. The employee in question is one Captain Miles Morgan, a senior pilot who resides in Portland, OR. 

 In his spare time, he claims to enjoy photography as a hobby. Or so he says. In reality, the entire hobby is a recognition farming operation designed to bill Miles as a talented outdoor photographer. In the process, he has stolen the compositions of several different outdoor photographers and claimed credit for them (copyright violation). He has also taken these stolen images and sold them on microstock photography sites for pennies on the dollar, defrauding the rightful owners of the intellectual property rights they are rightfully entitled to. Mr. Miles Morgan has taken great delight & pride in his actions, and has shown no remorse for these despicable acts that can only be described as acts of financial terrorism against professional photographers. He seems to believe this is a big game, and acts as if he does not care that the careers of photographers are hurt by his immoral, fraudulent acts. 

 As a senior United Airlines employee, his actions sully the reputation of United Airlines and its workforce. I demand that he be reprimanded for his actions, on pain of losing his position at United Airlines. Until Captain Miles Morgan is reprimanded for his actions against the professional photography industry, and issues an apology to that effect, I will not be flying via United Airlines, and I will recommend that everyone I know, including friends, family, and acquaintances, boycott United Airlines. I hope you take this letter seriously and act against Captain Miles Morgan immediately.

Sincerely, a past customer and frequent flier.

Please feel free to take this email and modify it or send it as is. United Airlines will act if enough emails are received. Help put a stop to the immoral thefts conducted by the scum Miles Morgan. Help stop his remorseless terrorism against the photography industry.

In addition, as part of our personal email to United Airlines, Loserphotographers.com will demand that United Airlines take action against Miles Morgan, or suffer a website and blog calling for a widespread boycott of the airline. Will the loss of millions in revenue be worth retaining the FRAUD and SCUM Miles Morgan?

BREAKING NEWS: The first “we told you so” moment from Marc Adamus LIES 2.0: Pathetic imbecile Miles Morgan has stolen Marc Adamus compositions and placed them on microstock sites; how’s that crow taste, Marc?

Marc Adamus images microstocked!

Many of you know about Miles Morgan by now, oh wait, that’s “Captain” Miles Morgan (uh huh). While he (no doubt) strongly believes in his right to earn a very comfortable 6 figures from his day job, he does not believe that right extends to anyone else. Which is why Miles Morgan has stolen several Marc Adamus compositions and placed them on the microstock portion of Getty (yes, the vaunted “Flickr” collection). Go check it out if you don’t believe us. So Miles Morgan believes he can steal someone else’s images and throw them away for pennies, while he gorges himself at the trough of United Airlines. 

 It’s time to Man Up, Marc Adamus. We extended an offer, in good faith, to you previously, which you scorned (no doubt with some sense of satisfaction). Now it’s out in the open, however. Miles Morgan, and other shameless cretins like him, have greedily stolen your images and have started to give them away for pennies. We sure hope Marc managed to sell a workshop to Miles Morgan and get something out of this. It’s time to put a stop to this, or watch as almost all of your images end up on microstock sites for pennies. These THUGS have no shame, no concern for other peoples’ welfare. All they care about is being able to sell an image for 50 cents and running to whatever forum they frequent, to scream “I’ve made it! I sold an image for 50 cents….time to go full time pro!”.

 Think of your families before you decide to just “let” scum like Miles Morgan steal your work and throw it away for pennies. Defend your copyright!

 What a thieving, pathetic piece of shit Miles Morgan is. How uncaring and lacking of empathy! Someone should find this scum and rearrange his face. How convenient for him that he’s actually got a full-time cheering section on Flickr and other scum sites, calling him a “great photographer”. Great photographer for what? Managing to exactly copy other photographers, steal their work and take credit for it, and then dump it on microstock sites for pennies on the dollar? For what? What sort of twisted, vain pleasure does this monster get from this?
