http://writerlionel.wordpress.com - There are many sources for free photos on the internet. Here are 5 of my personally recommended sources, due to the quality of the images, and creativity of the photos.

The only caveat: except for one of them, there is no easy way to search these sources by topic. You'll have to monitor them for new content or subscribe to their newsletters.The only caveat: except for one of them, there is no easy way to search these sources by topic.
