i am interesting in photos to put into a book that i write (children book)
i woold be happy to get recommendations aboot photos collection that you use,
i heard aboot photo objects of hemera, is it good?
can i use it without background?
 
Why don't you have a go at doing some illustrations for the book yourself(got a talented friend?)?
Anything you do will be much more relevant to the story than any 3rd party image collections.

As for Hemera photo objects, yes they can be used without backgrounds, that is what they are for(copy and paste into photoshop), otherwise it would be just another image collection.

Moe: It could have been a real ugly situation, but luckily I managed to shoot him in the spine.
 
i dont do it my self cause i need 600 photos
to take the picture myself will be very difficult.
is there some other photo collections that you know of and can recommend?
 
Well what's the book about(story, educational, etc)? what sort of images(photos, illustrations, cartoons)?

If it is a story book for children then 600 images seems a bit excessive.

Do a search for royalty free stock photography in Google.

You'll find loads of royalty free photos (you'll still have to pay for the images, but won't have to pay royalties on them.
Also look at each sites 'definition' of royalty free; some companies have limitations on what you can and can't use the images for).

it is a book teaching new language, every word is written beside the photo that describe it.
i think photos will be the best? what do you think?
