I find photos from all over the web. Below are some of my favorite resources:
- Free, open license. Mostly landscapes but a few with people here and there.
http://join.deathtothestockphoto.com/
- This is a membership site, they send you a zip file with 10 free, open license photos every month.
- These are vintage photos from public archives, in the public domain.
- These are free and open. This site has categories you can use to narrow down to people, places, technology, etc.
- This is a great place to find cool patterns and other visual elements (not photos).
- Free, open license. Mostly landscapes and some “artsy” stuff.
- Free, licenses on each image and usually restricted to non-commercial use.
