Copyright Information
All the text and images on this Web domain are

Here are the terms of my general copyright for image usage.
Printing of photos for personal use
If you want a copy of one of my images to use as wallpaper, use in a school
project or decorate your wall, then please feel free to print anything you like
from my sites.
Non-commercial Web use
If you have a personal home page or non-commercial Web service, please send me
an email notifying me of usage and provide a hyperlinked credit below each image.
You can insert the following HTML below the image.
p><font size="1"><b>Photograph courtesy of
<a href="http://www.karott.com/photography/">Karott
Productions</a></b></font></p>
That way people know who took the picture, and also can find my photos and
copyright statement.
You do not need to pay for this usage.
Commercial or Non-Profit Web or Print use of images
If you would like to use any of my images on a commercial or non-profit site,
then please do one of the following:
- Check for image availability on iStock. You can follow their terms of use
for any of my images.
- Notify me of your interest in using an image. Specify the image, site
where you've seen the image and the preferred size, your site URL and how
you'd like to use the image.
- I'll review the request and decide if the usage is acceptable and propose
a sum for usage. (Non-profits will most likely be at no cost)
- If an agreement is reached, you may add the image or images and add a
hyperlinked credit for each image.
You can insert the following HTML below the image.
p><font size="1"><b>Photograph used by
permission and courtesy of
<a href="http://www.karott.com/photography/">Karott
Productions</a></b></font></p>
Note: Be aware that the people in my images have not provided a model-released.
Advertising usage of images is very different than editorial usage of photos.
You cannot use pictures in advertising without getting a model release from any
person who is recognizable in the image.
The reason advertisers pay $1000.00+ for images from stock agencies is that
those agencies have generally already gotten the relevant releases.
