March 2014: Pixabay

Greetings!  In my never-ending search to find good quality public-domain pictures on the web, I came across the website Pixabay.com.  Originally started by two photographers in Germany, Pixabay has grown into an international repository for high quality images free of copyright restrictions.  The pictures are truly beautiful, and are searchable by keyword or you can browse through their library to see what is there.  

Pixabay does generate income by ad support.  Therefore, when you search for a picture by keyword, a set of Shutterstock images, with visible watermarks, appear at the top of the results.  However, everything appearing directly beneath that first row is 100% free to download and use.  Try it today with the keyword "crocus" and think spring!
