I want to say now that I don't remember ever seeing the photograph at the link below, never even heard of the Dusseldorf school.

vs mine

Now my image isn't overtly manipulated, every element that was there is still there. The only things I did were play with the luminance values and contrast, as I would have done in traditional darkroom work, (which was nearly impossible to do with color in the days before digitization), based on Rhine II I;d bet that's not true of the work by Gursky. Are both works derivative? Probably, I'm sure my vision was influenced by some image I've seen somewhere, and I'll bet his was too. The only difference is that his is Iconic while mine sells for $45.00, in local art shows if it sells at all.

Don't lose heart!  They might want to cut it out, and they'll want to avoid a 
lengthily search. or
