Whether you’re an aspiring blogger or building a website for a business, it’s tough to escape copyright infringement in a digital age. As enticing as it might seem, you can’t simply use any image you’ve found online and throw it in your blog or use it for commercial purposes. The bulk of the images on the web are subject to copyright — meaning the photographer or creator of a particular image retains exclusive rights to that image — and are therefore protected under federal law. Luckily, there is an entire realm of free-for-all images that fall under something called the “public domain.” Public domain images are available to anyone and can generally be used for whatever purpose you like — even commercial use — for a variety of reasons; the copyright may have expired, the images could have been photographed by a government branch, or the owner may have just forfeited his or her rights for whatever reason.

Samsung Uses Edited Stock Photo For Galaxy A8 Star Camera Samples
Samsung has now been called out for using at least one stock photograph in place 'camera samples' on the Malaysia website for its Galaxy A8 Star, thanks to a recent DIY Photography post from photographer Dunja Djudjich. The photo was initially uploaded by the Ms. Djudjich to a stock photo site called EyeEm and was heavily edited prior to being used on Samsung's site. Originally, the image showed the subject "goofing around" outdoors in the fall, holding a red leaf up in place or her lips in front of a blurred background of yellow leaves. Samsung's edits effectively cropped out Ms. Djudjich, touched up her hair and eyes, and then placed a different image on a separate layer in the background. At the site for the Samsung Galaxy A8 Star, the background is portrayed as being representative of the 'bokeh' background blurring effect the handset is capable of creating in portrait mode. The edits themselves seem to have been well within the usage rights for the image, which … [Read more...] about Samsung Uses Edited Stock Photo For Galaxy A8 Star Camera Samples
