I like the one with the red star, shovel & axe. I'm going to put that one up on my system at work. That should get a rise out of my Limbaugh-loving boss.
you can't copyright the earth. otherwise, that's a great image. too bad they had to plaster their logo & "ownership" over it...
No, but you can copyright a photograph, and infact are automatically entitled to copyright protection solely by having taken the photograph. The copyright can also be transfered to another owner if the photographer allows.
You can't ride down that photo. There is a difference between a location and an artistic capturing of a location. 10fifty or whoever doesn't anywhere claim to have some kind of ownership over the land in the picture.

i was being mostly sarcastic. i'm a graphic designer, i understand copyrights, etc.
i realize they don't actually claim ownership of everything seen in the picture. i guess i was mainly railing against the fact that they plastered their copyright in big red letters in the upper-left corner. take it down a few points, change it to white, and drop it in at the bottom.
bigpedaler, love the second shot you posted (snow-covered trees on left, fog in background, two riders with dog). Can you email a full-res version of it to me? I promise I won't do anything with it but use it as my desktop.
