LOL at your copyright on the photo of a Glock and some Speer ammo. Don't think you can copyright those.
"LOL"?
Really? Okay.
I'm just guessing here, but I don't believe you know anything about copyright or copyright law.
Here is a definition of copyright for you:
"Copyright is a form of protection grounded in the U.S. Constitution and granted by law for original works of authorship fixed in a tangible medium of expression. Copyright covers both published and unpublished works."
"Works of authorship" includes photography. A photograph, whether it's online or in print form, is considered to be "fixed in a tangible medium of expression." As the photographer, that photograph is copyright by me. It's basically product photography. It might also fall into the stock photography category. And according to U. S. copyright law, it's classed as "intellectual property".
That image of the Glock and Speer ammunition you "LOL" at is actually registered to me with the U. S. Copyright Office, as are lots of my other (non-gun) photographs. In short, I
own that image.
Guns, their design and inclusive parts, are
patented by their respective manufacturer or designer. There's a difference between "patented" and "copyrighted". Two totally different things. My use of the Glock and/or the ammo doesn't infringe on the manufacturers' patents. Using them in a photograph is fair usage.
You'll note maybe in magazines...the
American Rifleman, for instance...gun reviews are usually copyright by their author or the NRA. They use photographs of guns in those reviews.
So...yes, I copyright my photographs, no matter
what the subject matter may be.
