    follow:
     Supply specific information which answer 5WH-questions.
     Use the present tense to describe action in the photo.
     Write captions in a complete sentence—mostly a declarative sentence.
     Clearly indentify the people and location that appear in the photo.
     For photograph of more than one person, identify from left to right. In
    case of large groups, identify only the notable people.
     Never include personal feelings and descriptive terms which interpret
    them such as beautiful, scary, sad, lovely.
