Figure/Image you have created

You may need to consult more than one section to accurately represent the source used (eg. number of authors and source descriptions)

Images you have created should be treated as a figure, with a caption and details in the Note section under the image.

Add "Own work" to the image if you feel it needs to be made clear that this is an image you created yourself.

Format for caption and note

Elements, punctuation and  capitalisation

Descriptive phrase that serves as title and description.
placeholder image
Note. Contextual or descriptive information. Own work.

Caption and note example

Figure 1
Mountains and moon.
placeholder image
Note. Pencil drawing of some mountains and the moon. 2023. Own work.

Format for reference list

As your own work is not available in a published source, it does not require an entry in the reference list.
