istockphotoUsing images in a website or blog can make a huge difference. A visualisation of a metaphor can be a lot more powerful than any words.

Unfortunately stock images can be very expensive, so a lot of people end up abusing other people's images and breach copyright, which isn't a very good idea!

IStockPhoto, however is an excellent solution to the problem.

With images priced from as low as $1 you can easily find a photo or graphic that fits your requirements and thus avoid painful legal battles.

I've been using their services for the last couple of years to help illustrate company websites and blogs and I'm always impressed with the quality of the images that they have to offer and at such a great price.

I seem to be posting about quite a few photoblogs at the moment. I assure you it's not intentional!

Krystian Kozerawski's photo blog has a very nice mix of Irish and international photos.

Whether it's a photo of his wife or a still life they are truly impressive (at least to my eye!)

Disclosure: Krystian was my housemate when he was living in Ireland.

Motivated Photos

motivatedphotos There seem to be a lot of photo sites out there where you can upload a photo and add your own caption.

Most of them are a bit silly, some are amusing, while some are sheer genius.

Motivated Photos can be a bit of a mixed bag, but if you've got a sense of humour (and aren't easily offended) you will find plenty of gems.

NB: If you are easily offended do not visit the site and come back here to whine

Inphotos

Whenever I come across sites like InPhotos I always feel a bit jealous. Donncha O'Caoimh has been taking photos for years and setup InPhotos to show off his work and boy is it impressive!

A lot of the photos are of his native Cork, but there are also quite a few of other locations.

Well worth adding to your RSS reader.
