I always look up to sites that share free photos, I’ve got nothing against giving a link to the original author – but that time adding those links can add up to hours! 🙂
Thanks Alex! So happy that you enjoyed the post.
search.creativecommons.org is a pretty good place to look too, it will search multiple sources. photopin.com searches flickr creative commons images
