How to Check The Originality of an Image (Plagiarised or Not?)

Are you a fan of photography articles? I'm sure many of us are. But did it ever occur when you saw a stunning photo and you wondered how the photographer took such a lovely photo and asked yourself if it's really originally taken by that author?

It happened to me several times. So in this article I'm going to show you how to check if a photo is really originally taken by the uploader.

Let's check if this photo on my 'Flowers Photography' article is legitimately taken by me.

Long press the image or photo for the options to appear.

Click on search with Google Lens.

This is how it looks like while google lens is searching for related images.

Photos that somehow looks like my photo will appear but you won't see any photo that is exactly similar to it since this is an original photo.

Here you will see that the image is originally published on read cash.

While for this image, you'll clearly see that this one is plagiarised. So you can confidently comment something like this:

Edit: I'm not saying it's good to directly tell someone that his photos are plagiarized. But I thought that it's only right to tell this user about it because he's been continuously uploading or sharing photographs here without giving proper credits to the original uploader of the photos.

So that's how easy you can check whether an image you see on an article is plagiarised or not. It can also help you to check and search for the names of some flowers or plants that you are not familiar with. I hope you find this one helpful!

Honestly, i get tired of seeing photography articles from the same person who posts 3 articles a day with the same introduction and less about the photos. and so with the food photography, when you ask about its recipe, wala din maibibigay.. haiizzt. with this tip, I will check it if they really took it themselves.. coz its nakakaduda na.. thankz

I don't know why someone downvoted this comment when in fact you are right about what you just said. I also publish photography articles but I don't do it everyday nor do I publish more than 1 photography article in a day because it's nakakaumay πŸ˜‚

Just like what @Jihan said, those recipes are actually just taken on youtube and other sites. They are not authentic.

let them downvote it, it's someone who is guilty of the act siguro.. ok lng sana ang mga photography articles but as you said not to the point na nkakaumay na.. I told someone twice to atleast give credits to the original owner when posting photos from the internet as I saw that it was all plagiarized, funny thing that someone just replied with "yes"...nkakaloka, d yata nakakaintindi kaya pati description ng mga photos ay kokonti.. unlike how we do it na full details on how and when those were taken

I often do that, especially those Photos that is unfamiliar to me, I want to know the name and the author don't have any idea about thay name of the subject. That exc tah sometimes is really not true ano, some of them has exc tag but the picture is just downloaded in googol πŸ˜‘. Like someone I know, the suspect A join in the contest and got a prize with the pictures that is downloaded in googols, it's really sad.

And this article is really helpful, I'm sure some here didn't know that feature, thank you for sharing πŸ˜‰

I think the OC checker can only detect the words on an article not the images. So google lens is a great tool that can help us not to be deceived by those dishonest users who claims that they own a photo when in fact it is only downloaded πŸ˜‘

Yeah there's someone here who's very popular for her photographs. But at the very start I have doubts so I don't follow her. Her articles are all about photographs and the way she speaks in english in the article is way different from the way she reply to comments. Eventually, it seems like she conned a lot of people here and took their moneyπŸ˜‘ (lol sorry for the chismis πŸ˜…)

Just what I said in My article before to avoid plagiarism they need to add Credit to the rightful owner or source of the photos that they uploaded. This is important so that everyone will know if where did they get the uploaded photos. It is not good to plagiarize the others works. Everyone work hard to it and then they just copied it? They should think about the hardwork of the author and the owner. πŸ₯Ί

This is very useful information but I don't see the need to comment under someones post about plagerised pictures. There are pictures that I usually source from sites like pixabay, etc for free stock photos. In this case its not plagerised because you have the right to use them for free without crediting the photogrspher.

People need to be careful with such comments under some authors pictures.

I understand what you want to point out here. And thank you for bringing that to my attention.

Well I'm usually very careful with what I comment but for this one, I just can't help myself to say it since that person has been publishing articles mostly about photography and all of them are not authentic and the author don't give proper credits to the original uploader of the photos so I think it is only right to tell that person about it. And as you can see, I've hidden the username of that person just so he won't be humiliated but I hope that when he see this, he will learn his lesson.

Useful information sis, I can detect now if the photo is plagiarized or not. I visited mostly article that contains photos because I love to.

Any advice sis about picking up images from google, I use to do that I just marked it "photo credit " to whom I picked it up. I'm using it whenever I need it for a thumbnail of my article.

Yeah, google lens is indeed a great way of checking the authenticity of photographs being shared in this platform. Glad that google made some update on the app hehe.

'Photo credits' is also a good way so you won't be dubbed as a plagiarizer. And thanks for tip sis! πŸ˜‰

Same with me.

Actually medyo matagal ko na din 'tong ginagawa kaya di na ko sobrang naaamaze sa photos ng iba πŸ˜…

As long as may permission from the original uploader or kung sinuman na nagcapture o gumawa ng image hindi yun plagiarism, especially kung nagbigay ka naman ng credits dun sa owner ng photo.

Actually I found the issue. Two days back when I was using chrome I got a pop-up to add read cash to home page so I added it to the home page. Now I tend to use it from there. that's why it was not showing the option. After commenting I tried to open in chrome itself and found the option there. Thanks for your support.
