Fair Use: This was the official Australian Government image of Dawson J. It is almost impossible to get a photo of the judge outside the official photo provided by the Government (this one) as you can't take photos in court and he has retired and is no longer active in public life for a photo to be taken. Politicians' photos (in the other branch of government) are available for publicity purposes under fair use - I think High Court judges at least would be available for fair use too.
