Im looking for some ideas for a photo montage. Anyone know of any galleries or examples i can look at? I’m thinking of things like city scenes and groups of people, but anything you know of will help!

Thanks 🙂

do you just want a good image bank?

I always use: [http://creative.gettyimages.com/stone/](http://creative.gettyimages.com/stone/)

expensive, but the best! and if its just for mock ups then you dont need to pay…

TIP - type ‘montage’ in the search image box 😉 It came up with some interesting pics when I just looked
