The photographer is an artist. If he can show that his work was copied in some way, he has a claim.

If you have a brilliant idea, but no copyright, what happens in the U.S. if someone copies it and then gets the copyrights before you?

Most likely a long expensive lawsuit without probability of success.

I've seen artists on wetcanvas.com who complain that their work is being copied by other artists (usually on ebay). But it seems those who are copied tend to have a style that's easy to copy.
One form of deterrent would be to have a higher level of skill and originality.
Indeed, the theives may be forcing artists back to their forgotten values.
