[Hidden-tech] Stock Photo Sites

[Tom Adams ~ Reelife Productions & Folktography]

Hi all,

interesting results I'm seeing... Lots of choices indeed. And I'll toss out
another option... I would be honored to offer any of my photos for the same
going rate as whatever stock photo place you're working with. While I'm
well aware that I may not have that perfect shot of a busy intersection in
Manhattan with a business woman and business man exchanging coy glances at
each other.... I do have 65,000+ photos to choose from in my digital
photography archives... and I'd be willing to be that there are plenty
other local photographers that would be willing to do the same. I certainly
understand the convenience of online-stock-photo-shops (I use them myself
sometimes:)
Just thought I'd mention it...
