How to copyright photography to sell on ebay?

I absolutely love to take nature photography. I feel like my work is good enough to sell, and I would like to give it a try on ebay. I don’t want anyone to steal my images from there though so I am wondering what the best way is to copyright my material. I’ve seen people put a word over the image so people won’t want to try to take the image off the site to use as their own. Also, If someone does buy one of my pics, how do I copyright the actual photograph?

How does a photographer protect the rights to their photograph? Do they copyright it or is there a process to proving rights?
When selling rights how to photographers do it? Do they charge just for one use, for ownership of the pics, for rights to use but they don’t own the pic, how does it work?
