| Portion used |
As the image is of only low resolution and the background provides important context, the entire image is used. |
| Low resolution? |
The image is of sufficiently low resolution that its use would not replace its original market and copied made of it would be of insufficient quality to use for copyright infringement. |
| Purpose of use |
To illustrate the escape of Sim Harris, famously captured on video, which is a subject of discussion in the article. |
| Replaceable? |
Only two or three cameras captured the image, all for professional news agencies, so a free alternative could not be found or created. The image is used for an understanding of Harris's escape and the broader SAS assault on the embassy that text alone could not provide. |
