REVIEW:
Teachers and students will find Forestry Images to be a handy resource for locating images to use in multimedia reports, Web pages, and teaching materials. The images are copyrighted by the University of Georgia and can be used for non-profit educational purposes, but must be accompanied by the proper citations. Users are asked to register (for free) for full download privileges. High-quality images are available in several categories, including insects, diseases, trees, urban forestry, wildlife, and more. Each photograph is available in a variety of sizes and includes the required citation, the photographer's name, and an image number.
