Hi Pavithran,

Looking at the images, I can see attribution in the bottom left corners.
It's a little small, but it's there:
http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2013/2/14/1360836990090/Lagos-007.jpg

Presumably these were scaled to fit the Guardian site and were originally
more readable.

Cheers, Joseph
