Natural royalty-free stock photo backgrounds

Natural backgrounds

For those of you looking for stock photo backgrounds of nature based content, we have you covered. Whether you are looking for, clouds, dried mud, foliage, water, or any other background photos from nature, we have them.

The vast majority of our natural backgrounds are sharp and in focus, however, we are now adding new, less obtrusive, out of focus style images to our collection. Much of the new content being added is exclusive to our site. Which is important, if you are creating something that you want to be uniquely yours. What do they call that? Oh, yeah, branding.

While I waffle on about exclusive content, let me explain if you see a watermark across one of our images that says exclusive. It is precisely that and hasn’t been distributed to any other library full-stop. Previously we had been supplying exclusive content to an external image library. However, we discovered they were re-distributing that exclusive content to a network of well-known providers as general content. Let’s just say, were are not amused.

But back to talking about background images. Most of you will realise that not every background image needs to be specifically created as a background. Generic street scenes and landscapes also make excellent visual relief in your designs. You will find plenty of the latter in our library.

Archives Cookies why we need them

Due to regulatory changes in Europe, Excitations Archive Cookies policy requires you to Opt-in or Opt-out of accepting cookies.
I know, just another thing to do. We don’t use cookies to track browsing history, however, our hosting server requires the use of cookies.
Google Analytics has been removed from our server. This is because Google records IP addresses and stores the information. Storing users private information is now outlawed in the European Union.

Microanaylitics, which conforms to the European requirements has now been installed onto our stock photo server..
For the record, we don’t actually use analytics at all but our server requires them for our achieve to continue operating.So that means we are stuck with archive cookies and you are stuck with accepting cookies to receive full functionality of our site.

Archive cookies and your data

While I’m waffling on about tracking and personal data, we don’t store any of that stuff directly on our websites. Instead, our Stock site collects email addresses when you place an order for a license. Which we only use in case of a problem with delivery. We do not directly market to you using any collected data.
As for payment details, all of that information is handled by PayPal and Square, which means we never-ever see or store your financial or personal information.
