My new year #resolution after walking down a guided #walking track with eyes closed reading the #Braille notices and finding one that I interpreted, because my Braille isn't good, to say "Don't Touch", is to ask all photographers, especially of wildlife, to #CaptionEverything in #CamelCase so those who are #VisionImpaired can enjoy them the same as everyone else.
I have come to the point where I think to not do so is #Ablist.
Please #boost this and see if we can't have the whole community thinking about the whole community, not just the able.
#CamelCase #hashtags can be read by screen readers which are used by our #VisionImpaired #Brethren throughout the world where the technology can be afforded.
Enjoy todays #KangaroosOfMilkTeeth #KangaroosOfMastodin whose name is Wadjaling.

Hello to my journalistically incline friends. For newer newbies than I, here are my suggestions:
1st: Create your profile.
2nd: Write an introduction of yourself. Use lots of hash tags.
3rd: Always include a text description with your photos for #peoplewithdisabilities or rather #differentlyabled folks.
4th: Make it clear in your profile and first posts who you are where you are at so people will know you are safe and on the level - ie. not #racist #ablist #transphobic #homophobic etc.
