I have a collection of photographs that I want to use in an article for submission to a national journal. I have permission to use the subjects images for print.

How do I copyright my photographs?

The two above should help you.

argh...just lost my post.

Check here:

There are a number of different kinds of licenses you can issue. You can have tight restriction or choose from a menu of various looser forms (attribution only, remix, share alike, etc). You can ask the journal what there policy is, or check an old issue. There may be copyright information on the masthead page (the journal may consider all work included to be under their copyright, which may or may not be a bad thing), or you can look under individual images for a tiny attribution byline with copyright symbol.

don't put them on Facebook - you give them the rights if you do.

Thanks everyone! I'll look through these links over the weekend. I might have additional questions.

karl, I would never post the photographs on Facebook. Thanks for the information on that!
