Examples of Groups of People
One this page you will find examples of groups of people.

[Caption] Figure 17: Happy Young's hockey team, Esterhazey, ca. 1940s. Source: Moon Dong.
[Alt-text] A group photograph of the twelve members of Happy Young’s team. They stand on a set of stairs in front of a set of double doors. The team all appears to be young men. They all have a light skin tone and short haircuts. They wear uniforms of black sweaters with thick white stripes across the middle. There is a large white E in a black circle in the center of each sweater. The boys in the front row wear shorts that reach mid-thigh over black stockings with three white stripes. The boy in the center of the front row wears black goalie pads on his legs.
For people posing in a row, you can get a bit more creative as long as you are clear. When describing what people look like, please describe them in order they appear in the image.
