Stock Exchange is a free stock image website that I have found quite useful for gathering images for various projects throughout the years. They offer many free images that were taken by various people throughout the world. You can also take pictures on your own and submit them to the site. The stock images are royalty free images that the designer or user can use in personal or commercial work. I have found sxc.hu is quite handy for use as they offer up high resolution photos that can be used for projects or large sized compositions that use 300 DPI or more. Specifically, I have used sxc.hu for projects which include projects where I need pieces of a photo, such as a cloud, a part of a nautical map or even part of someone’s head.
Sxc.hu has a huge gallery containing over 350.000 quality stock photos by more than 30.000 photographers. SXC is a friendly community of photography addicts who generously offer their works to those who need them free of charge.
Various photos do cost money and are linked to Istock photo.
Recently, Sxc.hu was bought by Getty Images.
