For some reason last year I obviously had cause to purchase Istockphoto credits, because I received an email the other day informing me that I had a bunch of them left over and about to expire. Not wanting to take away from working photographers and give to Istock, I jumped in to look for an image to buy for no other purpose than to use up my 2 remaining credits.
An hour later of spiralling down the stock photo timesink, I got fed up and searched for ‘desperate’, ordered by reverse number of downloads and bought the last photo. For some reason this photo had never been downloaded before. Can’t think why.
Worth noting – it took EVERY bit of energy I have to not buy this photo that came up for ‘weird’, although now I somewhat regret that decision…
