The above picture is one of many from a stock photo collection once issued by Corel on CD-Rom. They didn't know the value of these photos when they sold the CDs, and now sell use of these photos on an image by image basis. If I had known how pretty many of these images are, I'd have dropped a wad of cash and bought a complete set of 200 CDs.
These pictures seem to have been shot on the best of old Kodak film stock. They have the warmth that today's photos often do not have. (The images were saved in an obsolete format, and had to be converted to JPG. As a result, they may need color correction that I won't bother with for my blog.)
Given that it has been the better part of 20+ years since I bought these disks, it will be hard to find individual disks I am interested in owning, such as for New York City, Washington, DC, and America's national parks. So, if you know someone who still owns these disks and wants to sell them, please let me know.
