How we use these images
We do not use our own photography for the location pages. Every image is a genuine photograph of the place it appears on, and every one is credited below.
All location hero images have been modified for website display. Each one is cropped to a wide format, desaturated, lightly blurred, brightness-normalised, recompressed as WebP and displayed behind a dark overlay so headline text stays readable. Where a licence asks us to indicate that changes were made, that is what this note is for.
