How do I tag this?

How should I tag the color scheme here? I can't tell if it should be tagged greyscale + spot color or blue theme.

It's definitely not greyscale, and I wouldn't even call it monochrome because it's got light and dark greys as well as blues. I don't think spot color either because there's a lot of blue all over the image, not just a key point or two. It's a full color image that just happens not to have many different colors in it, IMO.

Best I can think of is limited palette. It might be fair to tag blue theme as well, but I have never been very confident on where to draw the line with color theme tags, and I don't know if I would tag it on this one myself (blue is the only saturated color in the picture, but I don't know if I'd call it dominant).

Yeah, I wasn't sure if greyscale was even right to begin with. I can tell something is going on with the palette here, but not what. I'll just go ahead and tag limited palette then, as it seems like a safe bet in any case. Thank you!

Can exploration be used to depict literal archeological exploration? Or it should be left only for self-exploring?

Seems to be a tag only used for the act of exploring one's body. Feels like a tag that could use some work tbh, especially since its easy to confuse for literal exploration. I don't know what tag to use in its place for that sort of post though.

As for me:

How do I tag the string tied around their neck there? It's obviously not a noose, but I'm blanking on what to use to tag that specifically.

Well, the string_choker tag does exist... there's also the more popular ribbon_choker, but "ribbon" doesn't really feel like the appropriate word to tag something of that width. string_around_neck also exists, and while it has very few posts, I think does a better job of portraying the looser way in which the string in question is wrapped about the person's neck in this case.
