While poking around the web for a project recently this fish caught my eye — in The Commons public photo archives project on Flickr.

It’s just one of 45 photos in the Belize Larval Fish Group which in turn is just one of many many sets of photos uploaded to The Commons by The Smithsonian. Many other institutions are posting images there as well. Images have “no known copyright restricitons” so you can use them all you want.

From the website description: “The key goals of The Commons on Flickr are to firstly show you hidden treasures in the world’s public photography archives, and secondly to show how your input and knowledge can help make these collections even richer.”
