It's great people are discussing #ALT text on here. How to? Describe the pic like you are telling a friend. Put personality in it. Voice-to-text to make it easier. #lowvision #blind #accessibility

So due to lack of peripheral vision I’m always getting into trouble but going to sniff a candle in a box and shoving corner of box lid straight in eye is new one on me! The dot on my eye shouldn’t be there 🤦‍♀️ corneal abrasion is so painful #sightproblems #lowvision #disability

I just now randomly thought about this, and I would like to point out that I write the alt texts on all of my posts and would like to apologize if they aren't very good. I'm very bad at descriptions of things, but I am trying 🩷

Hey if I notice you’ve stopped using #alttext would you rather:

A) I quietly unfollow you
B) I comment under your post asking you to please use alt text and linking additional info about why alt text & accessibility matters. #disabilitysky #lowvision

What a wonderful last day of term. I got to put on my fun teacher dress & visit a preschool to help them understand how one of their classmates has low vision & how that impacts him and others in society. #lowvision #blindness #teacher #inclusion 🩷

Here’s a shot from my animated short “Ghost”, a film about growing up with albinism and how it feels like it separates you from your culture. And how the things you hear will stick with you forever.

Heads up to any fellow low vision/blind beings on here I will use alt text for any photo I post but since I’m unable to see exactly everything due to my legal blindness

Happy Full Moon in Gemini! One of the things I promised myself this past year was to practice art - even if I have low vision, even if I think I'm not good enough. I really like this mixed media I did in my journal. #art #lowvision #blind #journaling #mixmediaart #fullmooningemini

Today on the #Disability Daily #Podcast we celebrate 2 extraordinary #blind musicians: Stevie Wonder & Manfredo Fest!

Listen & read transcript

#accessibility #music #braille #Brazil #RetinopathyofPrematurity #PortoAlegre #BossaNova #Jazz #SãoPaulo #LowVision #piano #saxophone #samba #funk #soul
Stevie Wonder wearing dark sunglasses and a gold and black top with various patterns. He has black two-strand twist dreadlocks past his shoulders, a moustache and thin soul patch under his bottom lip, and he smiles broadly. Colorful illustration of Brazilian jazz musician Manfredo Fest, who is blind, playing a grand piano. He wears sunglasses and is seated on a stool, surrounded by vibrant musical imagery—floating notes, a guitar, trumpet, cello, and bursts of color that evoke the energy of bossa nova and jazz. The piano keys are prominent, and abstract shapes in the background form subtle letters and sounds, capturing the lively spirit of Fest’s music.
