Adam Reed used caricatures specially produced for his book Papua New Guinea's Last Place as illustrations, instead of photos. I find that sometimes they captured the message better than any photo could probably do. They are provocative and humorous. I suspect you nave less nominal ethical issues by using caricatures instead of real photo images. This is like pencil drawings from courts. And to some extent caricatures are more honest, they do not pretend that they show something totally authentic and real. So I like it. The only problem is that I can't draw :(
