Why selected
Shows all ten places together. The harbour, wider Sardinian coast and Tala monastery are labelled as settings. Individual source records are retained in this register.
Processing
AI-assisted compositing and typesetting using the credited photographic references. The approved collage was encoded as JPEG with descriptive metadata; its complete layout was retained.
Reuse boundary
The collage is distributed under CC BY-SA 4.0. Individual source photograph authorship and licence records remain in the linked article and this register.
Project-supplied composition; not offered under an open third-party licence. The embedded gray-wolf photograph is separately recorded under gray-wolf as a public-domain U.S. federal government work.
Connects the BHOC oxygen-delivery concept with wildlife and the relative scale of a red blood cell and BHOC molecule.
Processing
The original supplied PNG had SHA-256 9b84fd62a0e7a5d9b4a8acdab301325afbef09b7401d6b99f0cb4c03e6ee7f23. At the owner's request, only its baked-in wolf credit strip was removed from the visible composition and the complete credit was retained under gray-wolf in this register. The edit was confined to a 691 × 52 pixel area along the lower edge; every pixel outside that area is unchanged. The result was then encoded as lossless WebP with zero differing pixels and continues to be cropped responsively into separate wolf and comparison panels.
Project-supplied original artwork and project-approved derivatives; all rights reserved; not offered under an open third-party licence.
Why selected
Provides the Companion Animals banner, explicitly including Rem and Evchika, and the veterinary stethoscope/paw signature.
Processing
The approved master is preserved in the private project source. The public v12 derivative keeps the Arabian horse beside the veterinary retriever and donkey, behind the foreground dogs. A tightly bounded edit restores the horse's near hind leg to the same graphite tone as its body until the leg passes behind the retriever's ear and fur. The other animals and the rest of the panorama remain in place. Typography remains native HTML, with the Kipling quotation above the desktop artwork. The stethoscope/paw signature was mechanically isolated from the project-supplied reference screenshot. Responsive WebP derivatives were added on 03 October 2026 without cropping or changing the composition; the full-size original is preserved.
