Hi Booksharian Friends,

In a workshop Bookshare held on picture description, we were advised to identify characters only after they are identified in the book.Once they are introduced, using their names in descriptions is very helpful. If I haven't explained enough, I will be glad to elaborate.

Allways with love,

Lissi

I would prefer to know who the person is, if you can tell by looking at the
picture.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] question on picture captions

If you know who is in a picture based on the story, do you identify them by name or do you label them by sex and age like "young boy" or "woman" so that
the picture is text independent?

Often when I am proofing the second is done, but I am inclined instead to
name the person. How does everyone feel about this and what are preferences?

Thanks for your help and input!
