@stux Pamban Bridge is a railway bridge which connects the town of Rameswaram on Pamban Island to mainland India.
@stux #mumbai. Though this particular place called Marine Drive is 35 km from my home as I'm in the suburbs.
@stux I've shared some of most beautiful architecture around my native...

@stux perfect timing. I just reached my hometown for a couple of days.

Kollam, Kerala.

@manu Hey can you please caption the beautiful pic so that our visually impaired friends can enjoy too? Besides, when you take out time to describe every detail in words, you will realize it's full beauty. Cheers! @stux
@goofysufi Hey may I know how this is being done. Have added a description in another toot because of this. Would like to learn more as I have never thought about it when I posted pics.
@manu @stux
@Vishsai I use Tusky on Android, so I know it works in it. You upload a pic/gif, click the thumbnail of it and you get 'Set caption' option. The word limit is quite relaxed there. Try it. @manu @stux

@goofysufi And how is it being consumed by a visually impaired person. Does providing a description in a toot better than captions in a picture?

Is there any technology involved?

@manu @stux

@Vishsai I suppose it's just an add-on feature. You can add description in either places and the assistive tech should pick. But the caption is useful suppose you don't want to spend characters in your main content and the attachment isn't really the subject of your toot. Say a gif, which is an optional feature really. But it can be captioned to be enjoyed by all. I feel that's why even the emojis have a description when you copy them to text. @manu @stux
@goofysufi @Vishsai @manu @stux if the talk back feature is enabled then it should read out the caption. Have to dig through phone settings for accessibility features.
@bull500 there are very sophisticated assistive tech that many visually impaired persons use. I am not aware of the specifics. @Vishsai @manu @stux
@goofysufi @Vishsai @manu @stux yeah very true! we should do what we can to help when we can.
@manu @stux Kollam bringing back memories from college days.

Where is photo taken, Astamudi lake or somewhere near Sakthikulangara?

@ManojGramath Yes, this is Ashtamudi lake taken from Neendakara bridge, from a bus :)
@stux Double-decker living root bridge at Nongriat, about 65 km from my hometown, Shillong, Meghalaya
@sunnylyngdoh @stux I want to go there 💗
@Sangeeta It's an experience of a lifetime for sure. The four thousand steps are hard on your knees, but it's worth it.
@sunnylyngdoh will work out harder now for those 4000 steps! 😀
Wanted to go to Meghalaya this monsoon on my solo this year. But had to cancel due to devastating rains there :(
@Sangeeta With Meghalaya every season has its pros and cons, I guess. But yeah, June-July is a good time to go if certain factors work in your favour. All the best for next year!
@sunnylyngdoh can one cross it? Is the bridge able to take on that weight? @stux
@Saumyakul Yep, there are several root bridges in the region and many of them are indeed used by the villagers. I believe the roots keep growing, strengthening the bridge.
@stux This is Kozhikode in Kerala. The first pic is from my alma mater and the second is a nearby beach.
@stux Oh yeah, it's not any beach though. It's the one Vasco Da Gama, the first European who reached India by sea, landed in 1498.
@dearthofsid which school?
@musafir IIM Kozhikode
@dearthofsid i did my schooling in the city. Like way back. High school. The city is so close to my heart.
@musafir I did my schooling there too. Which school did you go to?
@dearthofsid @stux simply wow! Mesmerising!! 👍👌👌

Tea Plantations near Munnar Kerala.

This is not exactly where I live but it's from a recent road trip I took. Munnar is about 150 Kilometers away from where I live.
