How To Search Copyright Free Images For Your Blog ?

We always try to find best images for our blogs that can make our blog attractive because a good looking blog always gets the visitors attention. People love to visit sites that look attractive, provide good content and offer a simple and convenient user interface. But nowadays search engines do not like any kind of copyrights infringement and also ad networks like Google Adsense, Tribal Fusion etc which have very strict terms also not like copyright infringement. Most of the new bloggers do not focus on image copyright issues which can affect them in terms of Google's search rankings or denial of their publishers application on Google Adsense or on some other network. More than that some companies do not like their images to be copied by someone so they can even claim for them. So, its better to search free images which are labeled for reuse and do not infringe any copyrights. So, now a question arises, Where to find free images ?
