How many times have you seen the same globe visual used within a slide or even a picture of shaking hands? Or a picture of a phone operator, or even some people smiling while working in an office? And that’s precisely the problem. These pictures have been used so often, and they are so predictable, that the next time an audience sees those same pictures, they will be instantly bored. And that’s exactly what a cliché means. It means that these visual themes have been so over-used, that people are just tired of looking at them!

Each minute, millions of pictures get posted on the internet. And within this high-traffic driven and constantly changing network, finding a picture which was published a few hours ago, a month ago, or even a year ago may at first seem like a difficult task. But Bing’s Image Search can help you tackle this problem and get all the fresh visual content that you need. This process of narrowing down your search is achieved by using Bing Image Search’s Date filter.

Some keywords just belong to people! Typically, most pictures that are related to movies, sports, community activity, or physical fitness will have a human factor involved. So, it is not surprising that most pictures that show up as results for such keywords include people! Bing Image Search’s People filter goes a little more further, because it allows you to restrict your search to pictures where people’s faces are prominent, or their heads and shoulders are more prominent.
