UNITED STATES COPYRIGHT OFFICE - Frequently Asked Questions

http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-fairuse.html

This site uses common language to address the questions:

Can I use someone else's work?
Can someone else use mine?

When it comes to photography, the photographer holds the rights to his or her photographs (unless agreed upon in a specific written contract). Even if you can copy a photo from the web, or even if you see a photo without a watermark or copyright notice, you may not use, save or copy someone else's photographs without permission. It's stealing. It's punishable by law. It also not ethical.

Some photographs are available for public use. These works, in the public domain, are often found on government websites.
