THIS ISSUE's SPOTLIGHT on:
"Stock Footage and Photography "
Issue 22
June 2005
     


Asparagus and Hurricanes

In the world of stock footage and photos, there are endless stories to be told. Miles upon miles of film documenting the histories of people and countries all over the world can now be accessed with the click of a mouse. Many stock footage and photography companies can deliver all subjects, while others specialize in very specific catalogs of images and film.
