🙋 His hat's white whereas this reads as if it's red.

Perhaps "white hat and gloves".

This doesn't explain how to handle captions or other foreground or background text. Is there a best practice for this available. It's the thing I struggle with the most.

Thanks for your feedback! Always include any text in the image as the first priority in alt text as it’s the most important part of the message. After that, describe any relevant visuals or context to support the meaning, but keep it concise and focused.
