I know what you mean; however, go to any of the top stock agencies and do a
search.  For example, here is Alamy's category Travel.  They rank the

It's all about saturation - super, super saturation.  So much that it
almost hurts my eyes.  If I don't boost the saturation on mine before I
submit them, they get lost 500 pages back!
