feat(landing): First Light photography assets (free-license)

[njrini99-code]

LAYOUT BRIEF

This is an asset-only PR (no app code) — it sources the 4 hero photographs the "First Light" landing page (docs/LANDING_ENTRY_WORLD_DESIGN.md) needs: sport-ambiguous dawn field for M1 hero, golf dawn + baseball dusk for the M4 diptych, and a quiet misty field for the M8 final CTA. Primary action: none (assets only, no UI). Visual hierarchy / scan pattern / demoted: n/a — this is raw material for the landing-hero+nav and landing-portals+cta build waves to consume.

Files (owned)

• public/marketing/first-light/photos/hero.jpg — dawn field, mist + solitary tree + open sky (sport-ambiguous — reads as neither golf nor baseball), 1582×2400, CC0
• public/marketing/first-light/photos/golf.jpg — golf course at dawn, treeline silhouette + sunrise glow + frosted fairway, 1727×2400, CC BY-SA 2.0
• public/marketing/first-light/photos/baseball.jpg — baseball backstop + light towers under dusk clouds (B&W, grades well), 2000×2400, CC BY 2.0
• public/marketing/first-light/photos/mist.jpg — golden-hour misty pond + hill silhouette (different crop of the same source pano as hero.jpg, distinct mood), 1558×2200, CC0
• public/marketing/first-light/photos/LICENSES.md — exact source URL, author, license, required attribution text per file

Design-bar checklist

• No people, logos, or watermarks in any frame
• Portrait-tall or cleanly croppable-to-portrait (all 4 are native portrait crops, 2400px or 2200px long edge)
• Dawn/dusk moody light throughout — cool blue-purple dawn (hero), warm sunrise glow through trees (golf), dramatic dusk clouds + stadium lights (baseball), golden-hour mist (mist)
• Low clutter — picked specifically for gradability to the pine/ecru palette (open sky area, no busy midground)
• hero.jpg verified sport-ambiguous — no visible flags/bunkers/backstops/bases in frame despite being cropped from a "golf course" source panorama
• All ≥1600px long edge, all <500KB (optimized via PIL, quality 55–82 depending on texture density)
• Free-license only: 2 CC0 (Poly Haven via Wikimedia Commons), 1 CC BY 2.0, 1 CC BY-SA 2.0 — no paid stock, no unlicensed scrapes

LICENSES.md summary

File	License	Attribution required	Author
hero.jpg	CC0 1.0	No	Dimitrios Savva / Jarod Guest (Poly Haven)
golf.jpg	CC BY-SA 2.0	Yes	allen watkin
baseball.jpg	CC BY 2.0	Yes	D. Brandsma
mist.jpg	CC0 1.0	No	Dimitrios Savva / Jarod Guest (Poly Haven)

Note: golf.jpg's CC BY-SA 2.0 source means the cropped derivative is itself CC BY-SA 2.0 (documented in LICENSES.md); the two CC BY files need visible credit text if the site ships a credits/about page — exact required attribution strings are in LICENSES.md.

Verify

Asset-only lane per task instructions — tsc/eslint/dev-server were skipped (no code changed). Verified instead:

• file confirms all 4 are real JPEG images (not corrupt/mislabeled)
• sips -g pixelWidth -g pixelHeight confirms dimensions ≥1600px long edge
• Visual inspection of every final asset at full crop (via Read tool) for composition, no people/logos, dawn/dusk mood, headline-legible clear-sky area on hero.jpg
• 640px preview copies saved to /private/tmp/claude-501/-Users-ricknini/bbeb66a6-18c9-4527-a64e-54e5cbd3b544/scratchpad/visual-verify/entry-world/lanes/assets/ for Fable's review

High-Level Assessment

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Add a machine-readable attribution manifest (JSON/YAML)

• ➕ Enables automatically rendering a credits/about page with exact attribution strings
• ➕ Easier to validate required fields (license, author, URL) in CI
• ➖ Requires schema + code integration, which is out of scope for asset-only work

2. Source CC0-only imagery

• ➕ Avoids attribution/share-alike obligations entirely
• ➕ Simplifies downstream compliance and redistribution
• ➖ Smaller asset pool; may reduce ability to match the desired mood/composition

Recommendation: Given this is explicitly an asset-only PR, the chosen approach (ship assets plus a detailed LICENSES.md with verbatim required attribution strings) is the right tradeoff. If/when the site adds a visible credits/about page, consider introducing a structured manifest so attribution can be displayed and kept in sync automatically.

1. Misleading attribution instruction ✓ Resolved 🐞 Bug ⚙ Maintainability

Description

The summary instructs readers to copy the two "Attribution required: Yes" lines verbatim, but the
actual attribution strings to publish are the "Required attribution text" lines for golf.jpg and
baseball.jpg. This ambiguity can lead to an incomplete credits/about page for assets that require
attribution.

Code

public/marketing/first-light/photos/LICENSES.md[R82-84]

+If the landing page ships a visible credits/about page, include the two
+"Attribution required: Yes" lines verbatim. The two CC0 files carry no
+legal obligation but crediting them costs nothing and is good practice.

The doc’s closing guidance references the "Attribution required: Yes" flags, while the concrete
attribution strings are separately provided under "Required attribution text" for the two photos
that require crediting; this mismatch is what makes the guidance misleading.

Agent prompt

The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
`LICENSES.md` currently says to include the two "Attribution required: Yes" lines verbatim, but those are just metadata flags and are not the attribution strings that must be published.

## Issue Context
The file already provides the concrete attribution strings under `- **Required attribution text:**` for the CC BY-SA / CC BY assets.

## Fix Focus Areas
- public/marketing/first-light/photos/LICENSES.md[82-84]

## Suggested change
Rewrite the final paragraph to explicitly instruct using the two `Required attribution text` lines (and/or copying the full per-asset block for the two attribution-required photos), e.g.:
- "Include the two **Required attribution text** lines verbatim (for `golf.jpg` and `baseball.jpg`), along with their license/source links."

Fable design review — hero + golf upgraded in a78d43d. The original hero (pano-warp foreground, winter grass) and golf (contrail through the sky) were B-grade; a targeted re-source found better: hero is now "Dawn In The Country" (Wojciech Święch, CC0 — sunburst oak, golden mist, healthy turf, clean headline sky) and golf is a pond-azimuth slice of "Sunset Fairway" (Greg Zaal / Poly Haven, CC0). Side effect: golf's share-alike (CC BY-SA) obligation is gone — the set is now 3× CC0 + 1× CC BY (baseball). baseball.jpg and mist.jpg confirmed keepers as shipped. LICENSES.md updated.

[njrini99-code]

🤖 Mission Control — PR summary

What it changes: Asset-only PR (no app code). Sources 4 portrait-croppable dawn/dusk photographs for the "First Light" landing page — hero (sport-ambiguous), golf dawn, baseball dusk, and a misty final-CTA field — under public/marketing/first-light/photos/, plus LICENSES.md. +86 / −0 across 5 files. Raw material consumed by the landing build waves (see #719).

Risk / areas: No functional/runtime risk. The real concern is license compliance — the set mixes CC0, CC BY 2.0 (baseball.jpg), and CC BY-SA 2.0 (golf.jpg), so attribution must be present wherever these render.

Watch for:

• LICENSES.md attribution is accurate and the CC BY / CC BY-SA credits actually surface on the rendered page.
• Image weights/dimensions are reasonable for a landing hero (<500KB target per the design doc).

CI: ⚠️ Required checks red — but this is an assets-only diff; the failures are the pre-existing batch/baseball-fixes lane baseline, not introduced here. (No fix/rerun performed by Mission Control.)
