I travel with a corkscrew, not a tripod, so most of the photographs on this site are not mine. They come from photographers who released their work under Creative Commons licences or into the public domain. Each image is listed below with the author’s name, the licence and a link to the original file; where I have cropped or resized a picture, the entry says so.

If an image here is yours and the credit is wrong or missing, write to me and I will put it right.
