=======Examples of Groups of People======

One this page you will find examples of groups of people.

<note important>Remember these are examples only. Always follow the general guidelines and the other documentation on the image wiki as needed. Context will always influence how you describe something.</note>

<note tip>It is helpful to count how many people there are in an image to help make the description more concise. If you are dealing with a crowd of people it is okay to be general and use descriptors like: ''dozens'', ''hundreds'', ''a large group'', etc..</note>

<note tip>If you have any questions, post your question on the [[public:nnels:etext:images:alt-text_q_a|Alt-Text Q&A]]</note>

For rows of people, group like with like, and it is okay to be a bit more repetitive in these descriptions across the book as per the nature of these image types.

For people posing in a row, you can get a bit more creative as long as you are clear. When describing what people look like, please describe them in order they appear in the image.

This image is from Gerry, Get Your Gun by Gerry Bracewell. When you have a book with multiple images of the same person, only describe what is different, and remember to include age when they visibly age. For more on how to describe age see [[public:nnels:etext:images:skin_tone_gender_and_age|Skin tone, Gender, and Age]]
