here’s a breakdown of the image URLs and captions you provided, along wiht some observations:
Image URLs:
The code includes multiple urls for three different images, all hosted on m1.quebecormedia.com. Each URL has a base image name and then uses query parameters to define resizing and cropping:
Base Image URLs (Original Full Size):
https://m1.quebecormedia.com/emp/emp/85705a9c48c9b-8bbd-47b0-a83b-912a883a9f1fORIGINAL.jpg

https://m1.quebecormedia.com/emp/emp/76729f614eab1-4234-4e81-ad5b-138d237fa9e7ORIGINAL.jpg
query Parameters:
impolicy=crop-resize: Indicates that the image will be both cropped and resized.
x=0&y=0: Sets the starting point for the crop at the top-left corner of the image.
w=2048&h=2048 or w=1153&h=2048 or w=1536&h=2048: Defines the dimensions of the crop area. width=...: Specifies the final width of the image after resizing. The code provides multiple width values (700w, 800w, 900w, etc.) to allow the browser to choose the most appropriate image size based on the screen resolution and viewport size. This is called responsive images using the srcset attribute.
Image Descriptions:
- First Image (filename
85705a9c48c9b-8bbd-47b0-a83b-912a883a9f1fORIGINAL.jpg):
Description: “This staircase at Rouyn-Noranda hospital is used by visitors and employees to get to the basement cafeteria.”
- Second Image (filename
8563247f4afa4-ebbd-4c30-bcf3-c4d0e3c02a05ORIGINAL.jpg):
Description: “A rescue staircase at Amos Hospital is condemned because he is too bad in point and very rusty.”
- Third Image (filename
76729f614eab1-4234-4e81-ad5b-138d237fa9e7ORIGINAL.jpg):
Unluckily, the provided extract ends abruptly, so the description for this image is incomplete.
Key Observations and Improvements:
Responsive Images: The use of srcset with multiple width values is excellent for responsive image handling. This ensures that users on different devices get an appropriately sized image,improving performance and user experience.
Image Optimization: The impolicy=crop-resize parameter suggests the server is handling image optimization. This is good, but double-check the level of compression to ensure you’re balancing quality and file size.
Accessibility: The alt attribute on the img tag is crucial for accessibility. It provides a text alternative for screen readers and is displayed if the image fails to load. Make sure the alt text is descriptive and accurate. The alt text for the first two images is simply “amos” which is not a very descriptive alt text. Alt text should describe the image to visually impaired users.
Formatting Issues: The HTML in the provided code fragment looks like it was extracted directly from the middle of a document.There are extraneous characters like “
” which are probably line feeds that weren’t encoded correctly. The formatting could be cleaned up to make the code more readable and maintainable.
Grammar and Spelling: The provided descriptions contain some grammatical errors and typos. Editing these will improve the professionalism of the content.For example, “he is too bad in point” should be “it is in too bad of shape”.
General Tips for Working with Images:
Choose the right Format: JPEG is generally good for photographs, while PNG is better for graphics with sharp lines and text. WebP is a modern format offering excellent compression for both types.
Lazy Loading: Consider using lazy loading (loading images only when they are about to come into view) to improve page load times.
Cache Control: Configure your server to properly cache images to reduce the number of requests and improve performance.
* Image CDNs: For high-traffic websites, using a Content Delivery Network (CDN) for images can significantly improve performance by serving images from servers geographically closer to the user.
