Image credits

Some of the destination photography on this site comes from Wikimedia Commons rather than from our own cameras. We would rather show a correctly attributed photograph of the actual place than a stock image of somewhere that merely looks like it.

Every file below is listed with what it shows, who took it, and the licence it is used under. If you are the author of one of these and would like the credit corrected or the image removed, please get in touch and we will act on it.
