Often, as pattern designers, we’re always on the lookout for photographs to create patterns from. Unfortunately, this can be a sticky situation when using someone else’s photographs. Unless you were given explicit permission to use a photographer’s picture, you may be in violation of copyright law. But before you throw in your pattern-making hat, there is a solution. There is an emergence of public domain and copyright free photo websites springing up. Copyright-Free-Photos.org.uk is one of them that has a nice collection of photographs available for public use. Their collection is organized into categories for easy browsing, and the picture quality is quite good. They have a number of subjects from wildlife to castles. So there’s certainly a little something for everybody! Check it out!
