"For example, in your OP, you had do this: person/a creature/a character/an avatar/a static dummy/etc. and how I describe that person/creature/character/avatar/static dummy, no matter how small and far away, and I mention that the person/creature/character/avatar/static dummy is"
That's because I had to cover a lot, including but not limited to:
- real-life humans
- real-life animals
- drawn/animated human characters
- drawn/animated furry characters
- drawn/animated animal characters
- drawn/animated feral animals
- video game characters
- avatars in virtual worlds (may appear in my pictures)
- computer-controlled non-player characters in virtual worlds based on OpenSimulator (may appear in my pictures)
- computer-controlled animesh figures in Second Life or virtual worlds based on OpenSimulator (may appear in my pictures)
- static, non-moving dummy figures in virtual worlds (may appear in my pictures)
- two-dimensional, semi-transparent, "cardboard-style", static, non-moving dummy props based on photographs or screenshots or drawings of humans or furry characters or animals (may appear in my pictures)

There are. ^_^"
Okay, just for me to understand this: I will now confront you with links to a few pictures which I'd flag "CW: eye contact" whereas other people wouldn't even know where there's someone who'd make eye contact.
Example #1: this image from this blog post (this link leads to actual, fairly close-up eye contact).
If I understand you correctly, both the female avatar at roughly 20% from the left-hand edge and 60% from the top edge, the two static guard dummies on both sides of the entrance to the building, the horse beneath the trees and the rocks, to the left of the building, the prized cow way off to the right of the entrance (its left eye is not covered) and the head sculpture inside the building can be triggers that need to be hidden.
Example #2: this image from this blog post (this link leads to more close-up eye contact than the example).
On the path that leads through the image, fairly close to the edge to the left, there's a cart with what looks like an static dummy ox in front. There's a human static dummy standing behind the neck of the ox. The on-looker is well within the field of view of the ox, and the human is oriented such that his face is largely on the visible side of his head. In both cases, it can only be estimated where the eyes are. Still, if I understand you correctly, both the human and the ox can be critical triggers.
Example #3: this image from this blog post (don't scroll beyond this image once you've found it).
Even disregarding the huge posters above the stage, every avatar or occasional NPC dance partner in this animated image can be a trigger for showing their face unless they permanently turn their back and the back of their head towards the on-looker.
"I'll end it with another example since we're already on the topic. You haven't asked yet if you should use “autistic [person]” or “person with autism”. It's a very heated subject."
I think the correct term should be "person in the autistic spectrum".
But I keep forgetting stuff. I can write a monstrous image description, redact it, add a missing transcription which I had previously practically apologised for not having been able to write, end up posting a 13,000-character behemoth and then realise I've forgotten to mention that it's a digital rendering and to describe what that "Metropolis robot Maria" look-alike actually looks like.
