 * Hi there,
 * I want to change the description text alignment of an image in the wp gallery.
   The text description now sits at the bottom of the image and I would like it 
   to be on the right. Does anyone know how I would able to do this in the CSS? 
   please 🙂

 * Unfotunately, given the way the HTML is generated, there’s no easy CSS way to
   have the image and caption side by side on [http://richcobeverages.com/iced-tea/passion-fruit-boxnb-2/](http://richcobeverages.com/iced-tea/passion-fruit-boxnb-2/)
 * On a page like [http://richcobeverages.com/iced-tea/](http://richcobeverages.com/iced-tea/),
   you can get there, more or less with some additional CSS
 *     ```
       div.gallery-icon.landscape {
         float:left;
       }
       .site-main .gallery figcaption {
           margin: 0;
           float: left;
           padding-left: 2em;
           padding-top: 2m;
       }
       ```
   
 * If your theme as a “custom CSS” option, you can enter the above there. If not,
   install the plugin “simple custom css”.
