Markus Spiske is a German photographer responsible for Free For Commercial Use, a site of free, royalty-free photos to use as you please. If you're looking for public domain images that don't look like a million others, here's an excellent alternative. A great free image bank!
Markus Spiske is a photographer and media designer from the German city of Erlangen. He is also responsible for the photo page Raumrot, where all images are under the CC-BY-2.0 license, which forces users to mention the creator, origin, and license. Spiske does away with this requirement on Free For Commercial Use, a site of free, royalty-free photos for any project, commercial or not. The photographer clearly labels all images on FFCU under Creative Commons Zero (CC0) and public domain. This means the photos are totally free for any legal purpose.
Free and royalty-free photos at a single click
Markus Spiske stays true to his style on Free For Commercial Use. His photos always have a vintage touch, and he always focuses on details or the common perspective. You won't find random snapshots in his inventory. However, he manages to take images in a way that still makes them good options for general purposes. Free For Commercial Use hosts 1245 free images. All images are provided at 300dpi resolution and weigh about 10 MB each.
On Free For Commercial Use, photos are organized by themes and displayed in grid overviews. If you like an image, you can put a heart on it and share it on social networks like Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest directly from the grid. A click on the photo preview opens the detail page for that image. There you'll get background information about the image (resolution, size, license, credit), a download link, and a link to donate to the project via PayPal if you feel generous with the cause.
If you're looking for public domain images that don't look like a million others, Free For Commercial Use is an excellent alternative and worth a visit.
