![]() Freely Photosįreely Photos is another small site with a couple of hundred free images that you can use. There isn’t much in terms of search options or information about the photos, probably because they don’t have all that many images. NegativeSpace only has a little more than one thousand free stock photos, but image quality and resolution are both very good. On Unsplash, you can get detailed info about each picture also (camera model, shutter speed, focal length, ISO, etc.), if that is something that interests you. You won’t find as many images and as much variety, but the actual images themselves are still of very good quality. Unsplash and the last two sites I mention have much smaller collections than the sites I listed above. If you need really high-resolution images, this site is another good option. You can also click on the categories page and browse images that way. This lets you basically find the most popular photos quickly. They also have search options, but it’s mostly by date, trending, views, downloads and favorites. StockSnap.io is similar to Pexels in terms of the resolution of the images being very high, but it has fewer images overall. The resolution is not as high on Pixabay as it is with Pexels, but it’s still enough for most web and print requirements. In addition, you can get fancy and use AND, OR and NOT operators to create some very specific searches. You can search by media type, orientation, category, color and by size. What I like about Pixabay is that they have some better searching options than Pexels. Pixabay has over 1 million images that you can download for free. ![]() Most of the files are well over 10 MB in size! In addition, you get information about each photo like which camera was used to take the photo and what software was used to edit it. ![]() The images are all in very high resolution, which means you can use them for some really giant prints if you wanted. Pexels is my favorite site for finding free stock photos. All of these sites use the Creative Commons CC0 license, which means you can download the images and use them for personal or commercial benefit without any attribution.
