How to find your photos on the internet

A year ago I bumped into this website www.tineye.com, it’s sort of a search engine for images and photos. The cool thing about it is that you can use it to locate your photos or images around the internet. This may be a good tool to check whether your photos was stolen or being bought. I found my photos on a lot of websites but i think a lot of them was stolen , however there are a few exception that made me proud. It’s always a WOW to see your photos being used by famous publications or some DVD covers

Here are some of the usage of my photos
