Hi Charisma,
Oh, yes, image description is all right, even desirable! A couple of things
though. First, present the description of photos like this, please:
[Picture description: A man walking a dog.]
Or whatever the picture is. That is, surround the picture description with
brackets, and include that you are describing a picture, similarly with a
graph, or chart, or other image that won't translate to text.
Also, if the pages in the middle of the book follow the page numbering, you
can include the picture descriptions on the exact pages on which they appear
in the book. However, as is often the case, the photos in the center of
books appear on pages that aren't numbered. For example there is text on
page numbered 80, then 8 pages of photos, and then text resumes, but that
page on which text resumes is numbered 81. In this case, please place photo
descriptions at the end of the book so that page numbering won't be
disrupted.
Thanks for even considering describing pictures! That really is a wonderful
enhancement of books!
Mayrie

Melissa,
We are allowed to insert photo descrips? I thought we could not add anything
and I was wondering because I have a book that has a large middle section of
photos but the captions don't do them justice.
