STOCK PHOTOS TOURISTICAL SUBJECTS INTRODUCTION This stock list is called touristical subjects because it has been separated from the general subjects, since a lot of our clients are travel magazines and touristical organisations. We could have called it leisure subjects as well. Our images are for editorial as well as for advertising purposes. If you prefer finding photos not by subject but by city, region or country, please have a look in the stocklist photos by region. Our originals are partly analog partly digital. We can, however, always deliver hi-res digital image files. HOW THIS LIST WORKS Every link brings you to photos truly showing the given subject. It is more precise than a normal search. If the link says lakes it will bring you to pictures where a lake is indeed a subject of the image, and not to pictures of the Blue Lake Bar. If you like to narrow your search, you need Lakes in the Alps for example, please add '-alps' to the webaddress of your browser after clicking on lakes. You can combine all keywords that way. This list grows rapidly while we upload images, add keywords and captions. ACCOMODATION Bed & Breakfasts/chambre d'hôtes Campings Holiday houses/holiday bungalows Hotels/pensions Special accomodation (farms, castles, palaces) AERIAL VIEW Aerial view AMUSEMENT Amusement parks Carnival Dance/Ballet Festivals/Parades Masks/painted faces Museums Music Operas, Operettas, Musicals Parties Playgrounds Theatre, Cabaret, Pantomime, Comedia dell’Arte, Puppet theatre Zoos ANIMALS Listed in the General Subjects. ARCHITECTURE Listed in the General Subjects. ART Listed in the General Subjects. CALENDAR SUBJECTS Travel themes are listed on this webpage. Many other typical calendar subjects, like 'mountains', 'angels' or 'castles', can be found on General Subjects. Everything surrounding flowers and gardens is on Flowers & Gardens. You can always narrow a search. Imagine you publish a calendar 'Castles in Germany'. The link 'castles' brings you to all castles. Then add '-germany' to the webaddress of your browser and you get what you're looking for. You can combine all keywords that way.
