Hi @madhuri002,
Your first image is in breach of copyright.
Your "image source" must link to the ORIGINAL SOURCE and not a secondary source like google images which display images from other sources. Besides , the ORIGINAL SOURCE you cite must clearly indicate that the image is a "free to use" public image.
Google sourced the image from an article written by Sudhanshu Kumar which was published in medium.com. The author (Sudhanshu) himself purchased it from a commercial stock photo company (see example here).
Therefore, it is a commercial stock image that is available for licensing at a price. That also means you cannot use it unless you have signed up with a Stock Photo company and have their permission to use it.
Ok, thanks for informing. I have removed that image.
Hi @madhuri002
Thanks for the quick action.
There are many sources of free images. You should use images from these sources always to avoid being caught breaching copyright.
Some of the sources of free images are:
Unsplash
Pixabay
Pexels
FreeImages
Pxfuel
When you use these free images use the attribution format required by these free image websites and not just the "source" link as ill advised by most of the communities on Steem. Some creators do not ask for credit to be given. Yet, I would advise you give credit to show your gratitude. That is the least you can do.
