We want to collect 'Images of Africa' that are 'free to use' according to a Creative Commons License: Social documentary, structures, public transport, village life, poverty, nature, wildlife ... everything!
There is no special purpose other than spreading/providing Africa related, CC licensed photos in media:
so they can be used free of charge by e.g.:
- Africa related NGOs/NPOS to do proper media-work,
- local business initiatives for their web presence,
- upcoming journalists,
- ...
Every one using group pool images has to check the license of each image to check what exactly can be done with the image
Some 'professional' photographers are AFRAID of CC. This group is not about collecting high-quality-pro-photos. so pro's: pleas don't get upset if get invited to share. It's all about sharing! It would be cool to have some pro-photos. Let's discuss it.
"Creative Commons helps you publish your work online while letting others know exactly what they can and can't do with your work." (creativecommons.org)
- Send your Africa photos to the Images FOR Africa group
