Fair use within Ihei Kimura
This image, Kimura-ihee01.jpg, is being linked from Ihei Kimura; though the picture is subject to copyright I (Hoary) think it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
 * 1) it is a low resolution copy of a book cover;
 * 2) it does not in any way limit the rights or impede the efforts of the copyright owners to claim ownership of or derive income from the book or incorporated photograph;
 * 3) copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the artwork in any saleable form.

The image is significant in the article because it shows a photo by Kimura that exhibits his characteristical casualness. -- Hoary 13:12, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
