In your internet browser, search for Google Images.
Click on the camera icon.
Click on upload an image.
Click browse.
Your photo program should open or use the drop down menu to choose where the photo is located, and click on that photo. It will show that it is uploading the file.
Your result will show this, but click on ALL SIZES. If the photo is private, altered, or not originally online when you saved it, it will not work.
Voila. It will locate sites the photo was used and you can click on any to be directed to the site.
I searched for my own photo that was posted to my blog to see if it was copied or used elsewhere, and this was the result.
We're looking for a new garage door and I saved photos from several companies, but did not note the model. So I entered them and was able to locate the original source. If you need to find the origin of a saved image, I hope this helps!! Try it!

I had no idea I could do a search that way, thanks for sharing.
I knew there was a way, but never remember to look up how. Thanks for posting this.
Thank you for the tip!
Now I'll have to remember "where did I see this"...lol!
Great Tip Marly! Thank you.
Thanks so much for this, from my husband too. He is a collector car enthusiast, and this will be very rewarding for him for documentation purposes. ...jan
That is very helpful, Marly--thanks so much!
