What Nerve!!!!

I was very surprised to find this image of Italian sunflowers available for sale (at an extortionate price!) on the Getty Images website.  I took this picture when I was in Tuscany back in 2013.  No one from Getty Images has ever contacted me to ask if they could steal use my photograph, and even though they at least have given me credit for it, I fail to understand how they can just grab something that isn't theirs and then try to flog it for hundreds of dollars!  I contacted them to ask them about this, and got a wishy-washy e-mail back which basically just asked me if I'd like them to remove it (and another of my photos they are also displaying) from the website.  I replied that yes, I would like that very much.  Grr.
