Image description: A paparazzi photo of former prince Andrew Mountbatten Windsor trying to lower himself in the car in an effort to hide from photographers, immediately after his release from police questioning. His face looks terrified. The image has been edited to add a crushed crown on his head. This crown is one of the damaged items recovered from the recent Louvre Heist, dropped by the thieves as they escaped. The text surrounding the photo reads: “How did they know I wasn’t at Pizza Express”.

As a non blind person I really appreciate these alt texts/image descriptions.
Thanks, I always try to include them, but I’m never sure whether to keep it as alt text or put it as a caption, or how well alt text works on Lemmy.
Out of curiosity, why do you find them helpful if it’s not for vision reasons? I apologise if that’s too personal a question.
As others already pointed out: the additional context information. So while I probably got the initial idea of the photo, adding the information that this crown was from the louvre heist, added a new layer of information. Now I could also laugh about the probably unintended joke that he tried to steal his royality back. It just makes the photo so much more interesting.
