Because Google ’ s computers do not store the photographic images, Google does not have a copy of the images for purposes of the Copyright Act.

Because photographic film and digital sensors are sensitive to ultraviolet ( which is abundant in skylight ) but the human eye is not, such light would, if not filtered out, make photographs look different from the scene visible to people, for example making images of distant mountains appear unnaturally hazy.

Because the photographic material of his time needed long exposures, he was only able to produce pictures of unmoving objects, mostly posed pictures ; he avoided making pictures of dead, injured or mutilated soldiers.

Because printing at home for consumers is potentially time consuming, costly, or low quality, a number of providers offer the ability to create high quality prints from digital photos, on photographic paper.

Because artwork can be widely distributed, and some owners may not wish for high-quality images to be made available, some photographic reproductions of works may be only in black and white and / or small in size.

Because of this, Noritsu has allied itself with the Eastman Kodak corporation, which produces film, photographic paper and chemistry, but not photofinishing equipment.

Because SOFCs are made entirely of solid materials, they are not limited to the flat plane configuration of other types of fuel cells and are often designed as rolled tubes.

Because of the Balkans were rich in raw materials like iron, zinc and above all oil that could help Germany survive a British blockade, it was viewed as highly important by the Allies to keep German influence in the Balkans to a minimum, hence British efforts to link British promises to support Turkey in the event of an Italian attack in exchange for Turkish promises to help defend Romania from a German attack.

Because of impurities, such as clay, sand, organic remains, iron oxide and other materials, many limestones exhibit different colors, especially on weathered surfaces.

Because < sup > 60 </ sup > Fe has such a long half-life, its persistence in materials in the solar system at high enough concentrations may have generated observable variations in the isotopic composition of < sup > 60 </ sup > Ni.

Because of the extraordinary range of properties of polymeric materials, they play an essential and ubiquitous role in everyday life.
