Stock Images From Dustwood Media.

Need stock photos or images for your website, social media profile, promotional materials, slideshows, greeting cards

or commercial products? I offer a good selection of original stock images for your commercial, business, non-profit or

personal use. Those on these pages are available for free download under a Creative Commons BY license.

What Are Stock Images And Why Should I Care?

Stock images are images that you can legally use online or in printed materials. Stock images may be in the public

domain, or are made available to you by the photographer. Except for public domain images, the creator of the image

licenses it to you, sometimes for free, sometimes for a fee. The creator decides what uses are permitted. (For more

about public domain, copyright, and Creative Common licenses, see the Copyright page).

Whenever you find a stock image online, be sure to check the licensing so you know whether you can use the image

for what you need.

All of my stock images can be used in:

book manuscripts

album covers

letterheads, business cards and other business documents

Free stock images are available under a Creative Commons BY License. Free images may be edited and used

for commercial, business, non-profit, or personal use, but you must "attribute" the image (say somewhere where

people can find it that the image is from Dustwood Media). Remember, although you are given a free license to

use the image, I remain the image owner - I hold the copyright to the image.
