does anyone have a how-to on writing alt text descriptions for dragons? (just the dragons, not outfits)

i have a guide breaking down the basics of how to write alt text, but now i'm stuck on what exactly i should be saying about the dragons???

i'll post 2 of my recent hatchlings' adult scries as examples of what i want to add alt text to so maybe someone can help me out?

@hungryhobbits I would just briefly list the dragon's information, i.e. breed, pose, colors, genes, eye type. If there's anything else about the dragon's appearance that's relevant to know in the context in which you're posting the image, or something you want to specifically point out, you can add that too.

Edit: I just took a look at staff's posts and they usually just list the breed, pose, and general colors in the alt text, so that's also an option. I guess if someone needs the specific color/gene details they can always click through to the dragon's profile.

The second one imo would go something like this (with staff posts for reference here)-

"A male pose Snapper with a light blue body and swirl pattern. The wings are a green color, and has an underbelly of green."
