There is a temple in Varanashi which is partially submerged in the holy Ganga. The submerged temple dedicated to Lord Shiva is situated in the Scindia Ghat bordered by the Manikarnika. It is believed that the temple could not endure it’s own weight, collapsed and leaned in such a manner that it lies partially submerged in the Ganga. Sadly, the…[Read more]

I personally rely heavily on unsplash and pixabay. They have the best images and the quality of images is also good. So you’d find that reflected in their database. Some of the sites are however closing down though. I have found one site which was hosted on tumblr, whose photographer died. His family made the earlier images for free. But that…[Read more]

@EvilElf ,Yes, that was me who told you that my photos were stolen by a writer here and I reported that person to Support and that person was removed here. It is a very critical decision to copy or steal my personal pictures I took in New Zealand.If he was there in Auckland, how come that we have the same photos taken? That was so devastating for…[Read more]

Interesting information from about God Shiva, Bholenath. One more reason why God Shiva does that is he also consumes Bhang which consists of the same. But the more important reason behind this is He takes what is rejected by society. As such He is not in need of medication but that is a way of telling I want to stay alone and…[Read more]

I have seen this issue in the past with pictures and my thoughts on this are that the admins need to set it up where no one is able to use other people’s pictures. Is this possible? Yes, it is. I have marked every picture I have uploaded on this site with my name but who is to say that someone comes behind me and changes what I have written on my…[Read more]

Do you know Why Lord Shiva Smokes Marijuana? During Samudra Manthan, LordShiva swallowed the poison and kept it in his throat. As the poison caused immense heat, he started getting restless.
Marijuana and cannabis are known as the coolants, which lowers down the body’s metabolism and brings the overall body-temperature down. This is the reason…[Read more]

Good to note that admin took action and removed the person who was using your photos from the literacy base library. But to tell you many people are new and are not aware about this copy right issue and other problems associated with the images. I think if once we use the image if it is locked for the article and is not to be used again by…[Read more]
@Mahesh thanks for the clarification. Please do add some more sites from where images can be downloaded without problems to the list you have mentioned as and when possible for you. As told by you I will stop using images from stumble upon and pinterest. There is also a site freedownloadimages do not know about it hence thought will also let you…[Read more]

@Krishna I don’t see the way to verify the images from the pinterest and stumbleupon. The reason being they can be original and not without copyright. So using them may land us in trouble too. It’s someone else images. I think it’s better not to add them to the list. The reason being both the sites have commercial images hosted on them. That’s one…[Read more]
Actually I had a post on this twice already for there were four writers who used my photo images, so shocking after posting my blog someone also used the same which is very impossible the blog that person submitted did not qualify for the photo image,Plus someone also stole my personal photos taken from Auckland city, NZ.How come he had those…[Read more]

@Mahesh
Thanks for the feed back. I will try to check about some other personalities who in the Indian context have made the difficult or impossible seem possible due to their business acumen and tenacity. I will see the most interesting ones and try to write about these business people. Best wishes.
Thank you for the clarification. At least there are three proper places where if we use images they are not having any complications and will not land us or the site in any trouble. Is Pinterest and free download images also similar please clarify and whenever you happen to stumble upon image which are similar to the ones you mentioned…[Read more]

There are many such leaders. I think leader of future bazaar group who formed the big bazaar, pantaloons and few other brands makes him similar to ambani. Only difference is that he has yet to get into the multiple markets. So far he is into retail chains and E commerce. So that is why he’s not much popular. I had his book. I forgot his name…[Read more]
Here are some of the sites that you can check out for the free and creative commons images.
1. Unsplash : This is the best site. Just make sure to reduce the resolution under 860 x 640. This is because photos are high quality. And the size is also high. Free and no need of credit to photographer either. Also they don’t have no name for…[Read more]
