While I enjoy the “hunt” for cute or pithy pictures that complement a catchy blog title, they really don’t add any value to the post, do they? Nor does “themed” stock photography or artwork, at least for me. Yeah, you feel “clever” for having paired the post and the image, and it probably looks a bit slicker, ok.
Instead, I thought I’d highlight photos I like — including those I’ve taken of things or places I love, or those that have been taken by others willing to have me show and reference their work. And I don’t have to worry about copyright infringement or royalties.
