2 Free Stock Images
As a professional designer, I do encourage other designers to spend money on high resolution images, specially if you are looking to work with high quality projects and clients. Although, if you are on a tight budget and want free stock images, here are some helpful links that can come really handy. Specially if you are interested in photo manipulation or photo illustration like I am. Enjoy the links an use them wisely.
