Website homepage background

[ReaderScars]

I'd like to take a look at some images taken by a UK photographer, preferably of a rocky, craggy UK vista, to evaluate for poential use as a website homepage background.

I might want to process the image slightly, some kind of colouration, duo/tritone, fades, etc.

Where shoud I start looking? Anyone want to give me an idea of what to pay? Would 'use now, pay later' be acceptable?

I'm sure there's a few people on here who could help. GetCarter and Paul911 spring to mind...

You could also look at something like Alamy.

Paul, Mark - amazing portfolios, thanks for sharing them - amongst the impressive varied subjects, some of the landscapes are incredible.

But, I'm not seeing *exactly* what I'm aiming for - a craggy foreground with large wugged wocks/boulders to - for example the right - with the sky above them, and the rest of the scenery to behind and to the left. The reason for this is due to the way I want to use different parts of the same shot.

Again, thanks - however I will keep looking until it's obvious a compromise has to be made somewhere. Or I see the right shot (I also need the rocks to be a contrasting granitey-grey rather than a mossy greenish shade - in order for them to stand out as I want to greyscale the image if it isn't B&W).
