Making Use of Visuals - Another Approach
I was going through the training about adding images to my website and I got inspired to share a new idea about finding images for my website
I added pictures to my website about a week ago and I wanted to find a picture for one of my artticles of someone holding their nose as a reaction to an unpleasant smell. I found perfect pictures for my article, but all of them were copyrighted and for sale. This would have been quick and easy if I had the money! I spent several hours scouring the web for a totally free image for my article but couldn't find that picture for free anywhere. I read all of the articles here for ideas, but nothing was working. And my wife was unwilling to pose holding her nose so I could take her picture!
And then I came up with an idea.
I had worked with Photoshop in the past on a rather involved and lengthy project. It was time to brush off my Photoshop skills and consult YouTube on some of the things I forgot how to do. I was able to use parts of free pictures I found on the Site Content Editor and created a composite picture. It isn't the best way that I wanted to express my idea of my article, but I think it turned out well and is better than no image at all.
This could be a reasonable option if you're unable to find a particular image for your article and have some skill using picture editing software for taking parts and creating a composite image that will help communicate your idea.

I amaze myself when I come up with ideas like that.
It doesn't happen often but when it does, it's a beautiful thing :)
