Default OMG Geograph

Just read the news story on the front page about people taking photos of horses this year, someone seems to think it may be down to this website. Have done a search of my area to make sure there aren't pictures of my horses on here.

Surely this is something to be concerned about, especially in the current economic climate and the current spate of thefts?

My horse isn't on there thankfully, but there are a number of pictures of the fields immediately surrounding hers and very detailed ones of the village that she's stabled in, including pictures of the livery yard entrance.

Not sure what to make of it to be honest.

Just done a search, thank heavens mine aren't on there but there are quite a few horses locally, with detailed descriptions of where the fields are. Think this is very worrying, especially as now it has been publicised more and more people will hear about it

the road that our farm is on is on there, looking in the opposite direction luckily but a farm I know in Cheshire is on there and you have to walk down a private track to get to that field. don't recognise the name of the person who holds the copyright for the photo.
