A good friend of mine, Cliff Parnel, is a photographer. He submits his work regularly to the largest, royalty free photographic library on the internet, namely www.istockphoto.com (you can view his portfolio by searching for ManOAfrica).
The standards set by istockphoto are very high and submission is not automatic. Each photo is evaluated before it is stocked. Photo's that don't make the grade are returned to the photographer with suggestions or rejected outright.
Recently, a client of mine needed travel brochures designed and printed and could not find the right international holiday destination pics that she needed. I suggested she go to istockphoto and have a look. She did and found exactly what she wanted.
The great thing about istockphoto is the affordability. For $1 you can download a web ready pic and for $3 you can download a high resolution print-ready picture. This is excellent value for money and a great resource for designers and printers.
These photographs and graphics are royalty free and can be used in the design and printing of calendars, brochures, leaflets, banners, magazine covers, etc.
