All images on this site are copyright. Most (>99%) are copyright Malcolm Storey, the others are copyright to various friends.
The images on the BioImages website come from several sources:
1. Digital images from a variety of digital cameras. These include most of the more recent (ie post year 2000) photographs.
2. Scanned slides from my personal 35mm transparency collection. These date from pre-1990.
3. Direct scans of specimens processed during environmental survey work, mostly 1990-2000.
4. Digital images from a Pixera Pro digital camera. These include most of the early macro shots and photomicrographs, mostly 2000-2002.
5. Images of specimens in national, local and private collections.
With the exception of a few originals which were already smaller, the pictures on this site have been reduced to a maximum of 500 pixels along the longer dimension. The full-size originals can be made available for non-exclusive use, if required.
Note: I'm often asked if images can be supplied at 300 dpi for printing. This is a meaningless question - any image can be set to 300 dpi. A 10 by 10 pixel image can be set to 300dpi, but it will only be 1/30th inch square! The only thing that really matters is number of pixels. If you want confirmation of resolution, please specify the required size (cms or inches) as well.
