Answer: In order to protect my photograph, I will ensure that it has a digital watermark with my name. I will also make sure that the image file contains embedded metadata. This data will include my name, the date I created the image file, and the subject of the file. By digitally watermarking my photograph and embedding metadata in the file, I know that my name will appear on the photograph any time the image is shared or posted. This way, I will always receive credit for the photograph.

In addition, I will contact a licensing agent and decide on a licensing fee or royalty for news services and other commercial organizations that may want to use the photograph. By licensing my photograph, I will receive a specific percentage of the gross sales made by any media that uses my photograph.
