need some opinions/advise

I just purchased a preik sapphire case back for my sub again. The first time i got one, i installed it, reverted back and sold it.

Now i've got the itch again and bought a new one.

HOWEVER, while browsing Preik's website, i noticed that the photo he uses to advertise his caseback is one of my photos i took back in 2013; he is using it without my permission. I was never contacted about its use, and only learned about it now that i've bought a new one.

As much as i love his products, and fully support his business, i'm a little irked that i wasn't contacted for permission to use my photo for the purpose of selling his product.

Is there anything I can do in this situation?

here is my photo that i uploaded to flickr back in 2013

and here is Preik's page selling the case back

Thanks for any insight you guys can give :)

Cheers,

Matte
