Posting this again because a lot of people said they found it helpful! Guide to ALT text: www.perkins.org/resource/how...
ALT text copied and pasted from the linked website: An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.”

Altar Wedge Tomb on the Mizen Head Peninsula, County Cork, Ireland. Built around 2500BC, it was used as a Mass Rock during the Penal Laws in the 17/18th centuries. The entrance aligns with the distant Mizen Peak. #StandingStoneSunday
