Hi!  This is the stock account of ~Professor-Kirby.  Hope you'll find my submissions useful and interesting.  We'll see...

Rules

You need to give me credit when you use my stock
Include a link back to the original deviation and to my homepage.  
I'd greatly prefer it if the work you're using it for is not centered around over-the-top gore, or anything offensive or discriminatory.  It's okay to use any of my nature, animal, or object stock in sexually mature deviations, but find your human stock somewhere else if you want to do that   (Sorry, I don't mind you making sexy mature stuff, just not with my human stock. )
You don't need to ask for permission to use my stock, but send me a message when the deviation is complete so I can admire it!
If you just want to use thse photos for a reference, that's great, too.

Thanks so very much!  Hope you enjoy.
