Good to know

What should I include in my request?

What files will I receive?

Full-resolution files without the watermark, sized for your use, with a caption giving the species and place where known.

How should the photograph be credited?

As “© Anandhu Murali”, beside the photograph or in the credits, unless we agree otherwise.

Can I use a photo without a licence?
