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.”

    Color can provide useful context. For example, in the case of this image, imagine if in a thread about it there was some discussion of the ripeness of the yuzu fruit.
