The Library of Congress has some amazing photos that are part of the public domain.  You should check out their site because these images are available for you to use in your film or on your website. 

Now, they have a new Flickr project.  This photo is just one incredible example of some of the beautiful images available.  Here are the goals for this project:

- To share photographs from the Library’s collections with people who enjoy images but might not visit the Library’s own Web site.

-  To gain a better understanding of how social tagging and community input could benefit both the Library and users of the collections. 


- To gain experience participating in Web communities that are interested in the kinds of materials in the Library’s collections.
