All photographs on this website are for decoration only. They are sometimes of the exact thing that was followed. More often than not, however, they are not. All photographs have been taken by Ian Cook, Aidan Waller or Emma Christie-Miller, or have been used under Creative Commons license. In the latter cases, photo credits appear at the bottom of the pages concerned (the home page slideshow credits are listed below).
The followthethings.com logo includes arrows whose shape and direction are borrowed from a lecture slide explaining ‘follow the thing’ work by Professor Trevor Barnes, Department of Geography, University of British Columbia. You can download Trevor’s lecture slides here
