Diagnoses

1. <p>This image's alt text is "Photo of dozens rifles and hand guns arranged in rows on the ground behind a black and yellow cordon tape reading Precaucion," which mentions that this image is an image.</p> <hr><p>Links should clearly and concisely describe their destination. Since words like "image," "graphic" or "photo" are already redundant in text alternatives (screen readers already identify the image as an image), their presence in a linked image usually means the image's text alternative is <a href="https://webaim.org/techniques/hypertext/link_text#alt_link" title="Opens in new tab" target="_blank">describing the image instead of the link</a>.</p> <ul> <li>Good link text: "About us"</li> <li>Bad link text: "Image of five people jumping"</li> </ul>
