It would be the same as giving away your negative Put or write a name or a logo somewhere in that picture, small or big, and clearly mention your copyright. If you give only a partial view of the image and never give a full size copy, be it analog or digital, you are supposed to have a form of proof against the other party. In the European countries copyrights often depend on the legislation of each country. Most of the time you will have to go to the courts, and in many countries you will receive peanuts if you win i.e. you will seldom recover damages and costs. I never heard of any other technical form of full protection in photography up to now. Otherwise thank you for the info.
