Multiple images coming together to create a leading article image. Far left: Jacq crouching on a cobbled path, with a golden-coloured dog sitting next to her, on her right. Jacq has a black rucksack on her back and sunglasses propped up on her head; and is wearing a navy blue t-shirt over a long sleeved black top, with grey trousers; she's holding a grey coat over her left forearm and a face mask in her right hand. Middle (bottom half of main image): an image of a white iPhone with the blue Seeing AI homepage/logo on the screen. Right: Jacq at home in her kitchen, cooking: she's standing behind a kitchen island (which is in foreground of the photo), in front of the oven, hob and white cupboards. She's wearing oven gloves in her right hand and holding a ladle in her left hand. There is assorted food spread out on the island in front of her, including a roast chicken on a wooden board and two plates with other food (e.g. vegetables). The left and right images (both of Jacq) have a grey colour scheme and are tinted with streaks of blue and yellow.
