What are the best resources for photos, maps and charts? In searching the forum, it seems that some people like the Zondervan Bible Background Commentaries. Does this resource offer the greatest number of graphics, the highest quality or both?
I like the ESV study notes and the Holman Bible Atlas.
I'm biased, but i'd have to say:
I like the BiblePlaces.com Image Library for photos, and there will be more coming from Logos very soon.

That's great news!

The Baker Illustrated Reference Collection (now in pre-pub, best price you'll most likely ever see on it) looks like it has some good material. Hard to tell what the image quality will be once it's published.
All of these are included in all of the base packages except Home:
I like the Holman Book of Biblical Charts, Maps and Reconstructions, which you probably already have (it's on the above list). It doesn't show up when you filter your library by type:media (which will find you most of the photos, maps, and charts resources in your library) because it's listed as a Monograph.
The Logos resource with the highest quality photos/graphics I know of is in private Beta right now (someone hinted at it...).
I can second the high quality of images in Holman's Book of Bible Charts, Maps and Reconstructions - and the Holman's Bible Atlas as well. Alternatively you may want to look into the New Bible Atlas (a part of the IVP Reference Collection). All of these are type:Monograph and thus too easily overlooked.
Keep your fingers away from Nelson's offers - these are lowest quality reproductions and sometimes only a small number of them.
