Everyone at some point needs to find an image to use for some reason. Copyright laws apply to images and it is important to be able to find an image for use that does not violate the law. I am going to share two places that you can use to find images and how to use them.
Flickr
Step one:
Step two: Search for bumblebee. Click on the limiter "No Known Copyright Restrictions" https://www.flickr.com/search/?text=bumblebee&license=7%2C9%2C10
Step three: Pick a photo that you find the best for what you are doing. Like this one: See the bumblebee image
Below the image you will find various types of information pertaining to the picture.
It will include:
- Who took the picture or where it comes from
- The date it was taken
- Whether it is public domain and/or copyright free
- Information posted by the person who added the image to Flickr
Further in Summer than the Birds
Pathetic from the Grass
A minor Nation celebrates
Its unobtrusive Mass.
No Ordinance be seen
So gradual the Grace
A pensive Custom it becomes
Enlarging Loneliness.
Antiquest felt at Noon
When August burning low
Arise this spectral Canticle
Repose to typify
Remit as yet no Grace
No Furrow on the Glow
Yet a Druidic Difference
Enhances Nature now

Another great resource to find images without copyright is Creative Commons.
Step Two: Mark the two boxes under the search box that say "use for commercial purposes" and "modify, adapt, or build upon"
Step Three: Enter your search word or words. Let's look for bumblebee again. Click on Pixabay. See the results.
The results show the image, information about the image, and links to download it.
These are just two sites that can be utilized to locate images that are free of copyright restraints. Here are a few more:
