Behold | Search High Quality Flickr Images - 4 views

  •  
    Another creative commons search engine, goes one step further than FlickrCC in that A great feature of Behold is that it also helps you to pinpoint the type of image that you require.  For example, when searching for "beetles" you may get images of insects or cars.  But Behold's interface allows you to use a drop-down menu to choose the category of images that best meets your needs.
