Google announced yesterday they have added support for Creator and Credit metadata and will be adding Copyright Notice metadata. This meta data will be used by Google to display Image Credits information on the image within Google Image Search.

Here is how those credit information items will appear in Google Image search on mobile after you click on an image:
