Unsplash
unsplash.com
High-resolution photography library with over 3 million photos free to use for commercial and personal projects.
Why it is useful
The Unsplash license is more permissive than Creative Commons — photos can be used commercially without attribution, which is genuinely rare for free stock photography. The search quality and curation are significantly better than other free stock sites.
