Must really be a start up.  I searched under "Munich" and "Onion" . . .  both got zero results.   If you want to get in on the ground floor this is the site for you.

It's better to focus some efforts in other sites I think...

There's a chance for you to make an unusual photo of an onion in Munich.

Your time is valuable.

We spend hundreds of hours of our time screening and selecting only the most dramatic, eye-catching, interesting images.

You save not only money - but time! - at UnusualStockPhoto.com. 

We don't have the same boring day-to-day images you will commonly find on other sites.  Looking for a "Wow! Look at that!" photo for your latest project?  Save time.  Save money.  Get results with our attention-grabbing images.  Register for a Free account today and get started!


It's odd to see that "hundreds of hours" yielded 45 images. Not that's a tough inspector!

 I love the name of the site. But to launch a site publicly with so few images makes you wonder about the marketing.

Great idea, now why didn't I think about that . . . . . . . . . . image 56 on the way.

...all those "new microstock agencies" need to get a better design for their websites...!
I personally don't trust a website that looks like it's been made in 1999.

Doesn't look unusual.  I have no inclination to use sites like this, unless they pay a nice fee to upload.
