## Discussion

Use the `photo` component to display a photograph in an article. A `photo` component is optimized for displaying photographs. Other components are available for other types of images, such as [`Figure`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/Figure), [`Portrait`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/Portrait), and [`Logo`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/Logo).
