Photo Usage

This page explains what you may or may not do with the photos on this site. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Please note – All photos on this site are copyrighted by me and can not be used without permission unless otherwise noted below.

Web Usage –

If you would like to use one of my images (in whole or in part) on a website, there are two options.

Option 1 – Free Usage – You can use any of my photos on any non-offensive website (no porn, racial, hate sites, etc) for free simply by providing a link under the photo that says “Photo provided by Backcountry Gallery” and linking that phrase to https://www.backcountrygallery.com (or the photos homepage here on the site). Please note that even under free usage, you must contact me and let me know where the image is being used.

Option 2 – Paid Usage – If you would like to use one of my images on your website, but don’t want to include the link as described above, you can license the image for a one-time fee of $30. To do so, please contact me and let me know what images you would like to license.

Editorial / Commercial Usage

If you would like to use one or more of my images in an editorial or commercial fashion, please contact me for licensing information. I generally license one-time, non-exclusive rights, although other rights are available.

Wallpaper

I love it when you use my images as your desktop wallpaper! You do not need my specific permission to download and use an image on this site as your own personal desktop wallpaper. For best results, click the smaller images in any gallery to bring up the larger version. Some browsers will allow you to right-click and set as desktop background (firefox for one).

School Projects / Education

Hey, I have kids too, so if you would like to use the images on my site for a graded school project, you can do so without my permission. If you are a teacher, you may also use my images as part of your teaching curriculum without my permission provided such usage is limited to your classroom instruction.
