Some of the photos in that video that are uncredited are actually some that I took. If you are reading this, Fred Mills, you need to credit me.
On a related note, here’s an article about The One from The B1M’s website:

That poor 'ol security guard is looking awful lonely there... Nice of you to give him some human company for a minute

I thought I recognized them from here!
Yeah, agree. He didn't buy your photos from a stock website. He's directly profiting from putting your photos in his video. The LEAST he could do is a small credit at the bottom of each shot that isn't stock photography.

Oh, and Fred Mills of The B1M is a plagiarist for taking my photos and putting them in his videos without my permission and without providing me with fair compensation as he is profiting from my photos.

Consider doing a copyright claim on the video?

I remember you brought up the following thread in the forum for Pinnacle One Yonge back in August, as I was having a discussion over watermarks in my photos at the time:
Photography, Watermarks, and TikTok
There is no easy solution to this...and is likely a pain to do outside of being really skilled at it, but making sure one's watermark signature is placed as such within the photographic contributions that will make it more difficult for anyone else to remove. Mr. kotsy is a good example of this...
I also noticed that when I take photos and insert watermarks in some of them, only photos without my watermarks appear in UrbanToronto front page stories. However, Google Lens can recognize my photos based on the watermarks I insert in them.
Here is the One from Devonshire Place this afternoon, behind the Lawson Centre:

They also pour the corner slabs, so the lower floors will appear wider than the upper ones, especially on the diagonal.

Photos taken yesterday, Friday (Nov. 8). Up to the core of level 75 or 76 or so on top, with level 73 emerging from under the blue scaffolding, up a floor from my weekly post last Friday. When it hits 77, that's the next mechanical level, so it will be interesting to see how it proceeds from there. The corner forms are mostly where they were last week, around level 62. The east and north Rail Climbing Systems (RCSs) below have moved up a level, as the skin is installed on level 46, as seen on the south face.
Starting with view from Yonge and Dundas, moving up to Yonge and Charles or so, with a wide shot and then a closer look at the south face where glass is now on level 46. The view from in front of Holt Renfrew on Bloor west of Yonge, and a tight shot of the NW corner of the first mechanical level where the newly installed louvres can just be seen through the scaffolds and mesh. Next, the view from Cumberland east of Bay, including a tighter shot of the top, and of the RCSs below. Then, the "classic" view from the NE corner of Yonge and Bloor, from a bit east of there by the old Bay entrance, and an oblique shot of the RCSs and above from right under. Then, the view from Devonshire to the west, from Queen's Park Crescent W and Hoskin, from College and Queen's Park Crescent, and finally another shot from Bloor and Dundas to the west, not as interesting as the one I posted the other day, but still a lot of sunset there!
I see that B1M used one of my photos as well as BloorMan's and Johnny Au's. My shot - not sure if there any others they used - is up for all of 10 frames, so I'm not that concerned about its usage. But isn't that your shot, BloorMan, used for the thumbnail? It's neat to see our photos there, on a video that now has more that 600,000 views!
