Most editions lead with a data card — a typographic hero carrying the edition's own headline figure. For a market-intelligence brief that is content rather than decoration, and it cannot be off-topic. Those cards are our own work.
Where a photograph is genuinely the right image, we use official press and media libraries — national tourism boards, park authorities, hotel groups and airlines — which publish images for editorial reuse, plus public-health imagery from WHO and Africa CDC. We do not use press-agency or news-outlet photographs, and we do not hot-link images from other publishers’ servers. Historic editions may still carry Creative Commons photography from Wikimedia Commons under its original licence; that source was retired on 28 August 2026 because it supplied regional scenery unrelated to the story. Source and licence for every image are listed below.
