One thing Mr Brooks could do is put that copyright water mark in the most annoying place on the photo, like across the rider and horses face, along with a comment, "To purchase a copy of this photo without this watermark call, ###-###-####".
In the old days many photography studios stamped "PROOF" just like that on proof photos. They also did not fully fix the proofs so they would fade over time. Some of them would even go so far as to hang the customers photo upside down in their studio window so their neighbors could tell they were deadbeats. As you can tell from all this it is not a new problem, the technology has changed people have not.
