@vernissage@mastodon.social I presume you will be charging users of the iOS app a subscription fee when it becomes available, yes? If so, then using my photos in what is essentially an advert for your app, without my permission or without compensation, is unacceptable.

@StevenLawsonPhotography@mastoart.social Thanks for explaining your concerns. #Vernissage (including the iOS app) is an open-source project created for the community, so that photographs like yours can be shared and discovered by people. Even if the app ever included a fee (which is unlikely), it wouldn’t come close to covering the costs I personally invest to run it. I understand that your concern is about compensation, so I’ve removed your photos from my post. Wishing you all the best with your work.
