Covid Superwoman may be needed for a while yet, so let's hope a change of profile picture doesn't cause her to leave entirely!

Misty sunrise behind the pagodas of Bagan, Myanmar - works as a shot of the place, and as a dreamy abstract of shapes and colors!

Our vegetarian chicken friend is getting the corn ready for harvesting.

I've never come across such an enterprising chicken, but I imagine it would be a delight!

That face!

It's an intense look, almost staring, and there is a sense of much to explore about this woman. All of which we have to imagine...

Photographs that intrigue, tell stories, challenge.

Big cats are awesome!

The colorful setting for these stunning critters makes them less threatening - and much more fun - but the sense of being stalked is ever-present.

This excellent video, produced by two @StockCoalition members, Michele Paccione & Nellli Guy, features the work of Coalition members.

As the video says:

I love this sloth! Can't be sure if it's envy - what a great time he's having just hanging there - or just how friendly he looks.

Simple style. Resonant, emotive result.

Total relaxation . . .

Comfort for puppies - humans sleep elsewhere!

This is in one way a simple shot, but in another, very powerful. Great tones & colors.

Who wouldn't want to cuddle up with this cutie? 😄

It's curious that this is visually so appealing covered in lichen. Oh for a time machine to see ancient Khmer architecture in its pristine state & compare!

The huge carved Buddha faces are at Bayon temple at Angkor Wat, Siem Reap, Cambodia

There's a reason adult male lions fascinate - what a magnificent physique!

No photographers were harmed to obtain this great stock photo 😄

[The Stock Coalition @StockCoalition]

Lots of familiar objects and a well known situation.

Lighting and composition make something visually compelling & commercially useful.

Gorgeous!

The expressions on these fish are a delight (although some look extremely mischievous). The arrangement is a beautiful tribute to MC Escher

A Coalition member saw this as a perfect representation of stock contributors in a coalition!

This shot evokes a time gone by & the romance of steam trains (yes, soot was a problem, but this lovely scene is snowy and soot-free 😄)

The Coalition works for fair royalties to support the creation of great images, illustrations & video.

Chiaravalle Abbey in Milan is just breathtaking.

This lovely image - so much more than just a snapshot - captures the space and art most beautifully

Feel the power of the impact in this wonderful shot. Part workout, part therapy for a tough day!

It takes time, talent, & technique to produce work like this.

Supporting contributors & ensuring fair royalties is the Coalition's mission.

There's an other-worldly feel to this shot.

Beauty draws you in - shapes, colors, warm light, & lack of clutter. It could be a metaphor for being in the moment, or illustrate the importance of water.

Support those who create high quality work.

Repeating patterns are extremely useful graphics - tileable, scaleable and in this case, fun and colorful too!

Paying creators fairly for licensing ensures an ongoing supply - there can be a marketplace that supports instead of exploits...

A delightfully happy feeling in this lovely, snowy portrait.

Expert attention to detail results in images which tell stories or evoke emotions.

The poster featured hardworking stick figures whose signs were hijacked for our cause (a good one, certainly, but we didn't ask the stick figures first 😄)

Join the Coalition via the link in the bio - avoid being picketed by stick figures!
