/* ============================================================
   Home page warm-up — September 2026
   ------------------------------------------------------------
   The public site was structurally fine but cold: one photograph
   in the hero, buried under a 0.80 navy wash, and then nothing
   but white and pale blue all the way down. Everything below is
   about putting the Society's own photography to work — real
   greens, real coaches, real sessions — without touching the
   navy design system it sits inside.

   Photographs live in assets/images/photos/ and came off the
   old CMSMS site.
   ============================================================ */

/* ── Hero ───────────────────────────────────────────────────── */
/* The old overlay was a flat 0.78–0.82 navy, which is why the
   photograph read as texture rather than as a picture. This is
   dark where it needs to be — behind the nav, behind the copy,
   and at the foot where the next section meets it — and clear
   through the middle where the green shows. The radial is doing
   the real work: it darkens only the ellipse the centred text
   sits in, so contrast is held without flattening the image. */
