Definition: A public domain work is a creative work that is not protected by copyright and which may be freely used by everyone. 

All photos on this web site are public domain. You may use these images for any purpose, including commercial. RepublicDomain.com is a place for free public domain photos and desktop wallpapers. Unless something is clearly marked as being copyrighted, you can assume it is free to use. But if you intend to use an image you find here for commercial use, please be aware that standards for such use are higher. Specifically, you should assume no model release was obtained. And pictures featuring products or property should be used with care. Some of the images here feature members of the public. If you are shown in a photo, or feel a photo violates your copyrights, and object to it being available on the Internet, please contact me and the image will be removed.

You may use this image for any purpose, including commercial. As the owner I have explicitly placed it in the public domain. If you do use it, please consider linking back to this site. If you do use the photo or wallpaper, please consider giving credit and linking back to the site. This isn't required, but it's a very good way to support the site efforts here. Just something like, "Photo courtesy RepublicDomain.com". 

Use the wallpapers and photos for whatever you want, use it all, sell it, for anything you want. BUT .. This doesn't mean that you can take the material and then copyright it yourself. It's in the public domain and that's where we want it to stay.
