I learned about this site at my EPIK orientation. I was told it has a lot of free hi res photos but I haven't tried it yet.

www.imagur.com

Also if you use Google images you can pretty often find sites that will lead to more high res pictures.

I recommend sxc.hu or flickr.com. Stock exchange are all free and on flickr, only some are "downloadable."
