Ohhh that's right, there's that. Nope and no idea. Probably nope.
I've grown to think that anything online is fair game. Forgot that there are still laws.

The photo of Rainier is from Wikipedia, so it's probably OK to use that. I don't know about the buddha pic though. You could try searching for a similar shot on google images with a filter for usage rights.

Another issue with that buddha photo is that it has a very low resolution, and if you wanted to blow it up to an 8 X 10 or larger it would probably not look very nice.
Are you planning just to print it for yourself? Its only if you want to sell it that you'd run into copyright issues.

I went ahead and found a image labeled for reuse on Google and very quickly put the two together. I just cut out the head of the Buddha after turning it black and white, pasted it onto the image of Rainier, lowered its opacity, and used the eraser tool at a few different opacity levels to replicate the effect from the Buddha photo you linked. It's very crude, and you might still run into issues with resolution if you wanted to make it into a large print.

This. For your own personal use, everything pretty much is fair game.

Awesome! Thanks for doing that.
Personal use. Not selling anything.

Nope! Perhaps that's the practice (like on FB) but not the law. Private property is private property. Putting photos on the Internet may make them publicly available but does not (in the legal sense) put them in the public domain.

On 125th street in Harlem, just down from the Apollo theater, there are all manner of street vendors selling burned CDs and DVDs in plain clear plastic cases.
I think media companies don't bother with copyright enforcement for small time operators, unless what is being done represents an emerging trend. So Napster got hammered and a few individuals where made examples of.
