Generally speaking, there are 3 types of licenses for copyrighted works: Rights-Managed, Royalty-Free and Creative Commons.

A good place to start with looking for images is the Creative Commons search engine, which searches the Creative Commons sections of Flickr along with the Public Domain-licensed collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the New York Public Library, and the Rijksmuseum.

Royalty-free images have very few restrictions. You pay the photographer a one-time fee, and you can use the image as you wish indefinitely (within reason?you can't claim the image as your own or try to resell it.)

Creative Commons images are copyrighted works where the creator has given certain rights to people who wish to use them. There are several different CC licences, each with different permissions attached (e.g. many CC images are free to use as long as you credit the creator).

Image licensing refers to the practice of selling a licence to use your image in a specific way, rather than selling your photo outright to a buyer. It is the industry-standard method for selling photos for editorial, commercial and advertising use, as well as wall art in the form of a personal licence.
