Adam Gallegos For County Clerk (New Mexico)

This old building is on Route 66 in Tucamcari, New Mexico. I wonder if it was Adam Gallegos's campaign headquarters, and did he win the office of Quay County Clerk? The election must have been many years ago! Shot during my trip to New Mexico last month.

Interesting the symmetry in this building, doors, plates. And the small cloud on the right counterbalancing it. I like.

And the site has no way of contacting them to demand it be removed.

I think this is what's called a "scraper site." Some algorithm collecting, in this case, photography-related content and regurgitating it for the purpose of driving traffic to that ad on the right.

Annoying but part of the online reality. In terms of your copyright, they're probably not much different from Google, except far less relevant.

Looks like they're reproducing portions of your blog as well, without any credit to you or links to your site.

^ I don't see that. There are three of Chris' posts, all with "New Mexico" in the title, which is evidently the search phrase they are using. Each of the three is properly linking back to the RFF forums page, as well as to the individual thread ("visit source for complete content").

I would see this as a free ad for Chris, one click removed, but still.

Does it conform to the RFF copyright clause? Of course not, but good luck enforcing that.
