Free Images relevant for Political Graphic Design

A great graphic designer in DC working for a political magazine was kind enough to share this list of free image sites, I've provided his list below.

(Some images are high-res and big, others are smaller; be sure to note the license terms that accompany photos, as some require a photo credit on the page.)

(SOME images at Flickr are explicitly available for public use, but you have to check the terms of any image you’re considering to make sure. Look for “Creative Commons.”)
