Photo and Film Credits

The short answer

Every photograph on Flowery Branch Homes is a real photograph of Flowery Branch, Lake Lanier or Hall County, or a 1912 map of the town, credited to its photographer and license, from Wikimedia Commons and Flickr. The home page film is cut from five photos and one map with slow zooms and dissolves; nothing in it is generated. Lake photos are captioned Lake Lanier, not Flowery Branch.

Film

  • Home page film: a slow cut of five real photographs of Lake Lanier (houses and docks on a shoreline, an arm of the lake in spring, an afterglow and lights on the water at night) and the 1912 Sanborn fire-insurance map of Flowery Branch, with gentle zoom and dissolves. Nothing in it is generated, and no share-alike photo is in the cut; credits for each source are listed above.

Rules, rates and maps change. Every rule on this page links to the office that sets it; confirm with that office before you rely on it.
