Another possibility is Getty API

BING is still the leader. Getty was a bust. Wrote an email to Pexels to request access to their API. Will update when and if they respond.

Received email from Pexels. I have the API key but they require a link back to them with their logo. Researched scraper idea. Seems like a better bet. Time to build our own database of images it seems.

In progress of building a local image URL database. Will update when complete
