Thank you so much, but it has to be the exact one. That one is pretty close. I really appreciate your help.

It can be a different color. I can change the color in Photoshop.

searching for salmon or peach there isn't much, you can always download one you enjoy and change the color yourself

Hmm I found it on this blog, small but with a message that all the photos belong to the blog owner: http://alicesg.blogspot.ca/2012/01/singapore-botanic-garden-jacob-ballas.html

You may want to contact her and see if she took it originally and is willing to license it? Unfortunatley chances are it's just been taken off Google images. Both a Tineye search and a Google reverse image search show it kind of all over but always 300px square or smaller.

although it would be funny/ironic if that particular one wasn't hers

Thank you 9lives & luisantos, very helpful. Gillian, i'm pretty sure the image is not hers!!!

gillian vann · « **Reply #9 on:** April 19, 2013, 01:14 »

^ agree. it's too different from her "work"

Mantis · « **Reply #10 on:** April 19, 2013, 06:43 »

Why don't you Tineye it or use the Google drag and drop tool? That can lead you to a site where the image is housed.

Pretty sure that isn't a stock image, so you need to use something else or get something similar shot I'm afraid

ShadySue · « **Reply #12 on:** April 19, 2013, 07:50 »

Lots of choices here:

(Check 'XXL' for size)
You can easily change the colour in Photoshop or another imaging editor.
No doubt plenty of choices elsewhere too.

gillian vann · « **Reply #13 on:** April 19, 2013, 07:56 »

my curiosity is getting the better of me.

why on earth do you GREATLY NEED this image?

silverek · « **Reply #14 on:** April 19, 2013, 12:27 »

I need it for a client. I'm a graphic designer.

gillian vann · « **Reply #15 on:** April 19, 2013, 22:06 »

ah, am I to assume they've "borrowed" it from somewhere and now need a printable version.

Lesson number 36: don't show client something that you cannot provide

Lesson #1: Don't comment on something when you have no idea what the situation is. Also, one who posts only to be negative is one who is not happy with himself. This is a site to help others, not underhandedly cut them down. Hope that gives you a little insight and helps you to change.

And your explanation is...?

Gannet77 · « **Reply #19 on:** April 20, 2013, 03:21 »

Ignore, I just noticed someone else had already found it on the Alicesg blog site...

Oxman's original point is quite valid, despite your overdone reply. I have seen many situations over the years where a designer uses an image to create a layout, and the client falls in love with that very shot. Back in the days when I sold stock directly, this lead to some very hefty paydays. It's up to you to educate the client on the availability of images you present.
