Himalaya_seen_from_snowview_2.jpg‎ (37KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

This is a low-resolution image of the Himalayas as seen from Snow View taken by Tom Cockrem and downloaded by me (Sanjay Tiwari 00:43, 28 October 2006 (UTC)) from the website [1] for fair use in the Wikipedia article on Nainital.

[edit] Fair Use Rationale

Although this image, Himalaya_seen_from_snowview_2.jpg, may be subject to copyright, I (Sanjay Tiwari 00:43, 28 October 2006 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

the image will be used only in the Wikipedia article Nainital to illustrate the view of the Himalaya (Trisul, Nanda Devi) from Snowview
Images of the Himalaya from Snow View are not available in the public domain.
This image is being used purely for an educational purpose.
Since this is a low-resolution image, it will not adversely affect the copyright owner's ability to market the original image.

This work is copyrighted and unlicensed. It does not fall into one of the blanket fair use categories listed at Wikipedia:Fair use#Images or Wikipedia:Fair use#Audio_clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "Nainital":

To illustrate the object in question
Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information
On the English-language Wikipedia ([2]), hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation ([3]),

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use and Wikipedia:Copyrights.

To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed fair use rationale.
