There are a lot of free stock image sites on the internet:

These are just a few examples. Make sure when you are considering an image to check the license because although some of them are free they may require attribution.

[Unsplash][https://unsplash.com/] is a great source for HD images, just make sure to compress it before use because it's quite big in size.

Hi Ashley,

You can find non-copyrighted material on Google when you search for images. Just use the filter 'Usage rights' and you'll be presented with various options to choose from. 'Google reverse image search' is a good way to check if photos that you have found elsewhere are copyrighted or not.

Also Flickr is a good website, just make sure to check the rights on the photos that you like

Cheers. Max
