Publishing two separate works in the same publication (i.e.
on a 
webpage) does not make either one a derivative of the other.
Even if the 
photo and the text expresses the same idea the forms of
expression are 
so different that they remain independent works. The rule
that music 
which has been "synct" to a motion picture is
(IMHO) an unfortunate 
extension of the copyright of the motion picture producer
but it's, as I 
understand it, an necessary component of the license because
of some 
U.S. regulation.

This issue (and a few related ones) has also been discussed
to quite 
some length on the licenses discussions list, see for
example:
