it protect?
Copyright is something which protects original work meaning that if you take a photo or a
piece of work that is yours as in you took the photo or you wrote the work, putting your name
or a company logo onto the work means that the photo or the work is yours and it cannot be
taken or used by anyone else unless it is authorised by the owner first as it is illegal.

3. I found this image on google of a the inside of a horses foot when they have laminitis, when I
saved the picture is said ‘ Laminitis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaen.wikipedia.org ‘ next to
the image but I still pasted the image into Copyright Hub to see if their was an owner as there
wasn’t a owner of this photo, so it was okay for me to use the photo as there was no owner for it.
