I was looking on the internet today and saw some sites with some great images. Now I know some websites will use there own images. But where do all these other websites and the smaller blogs go to get these amazing images.
They don't look like simple stock photos they look quality

I would imagine sources include premium memberships for stock photos, they may hire photographers or copywriters to sources images they need. Of course there may also be a role for Photoshop in this to touch up image quality, particularly if you're using images of people or food. :-)

Courses Plus Student 8,654 PointsThere are plenty of stock photo sites out there, some require (paid or free) membership others may require attribution, others are creative commons and you are free to use as you please.
Some sites to get you started: https://freeimages.red/ http://www.designerspics.com/
The above two sites should be 100% free to use, always check copyright on an image before you use it.
