# Together Image Agent Bytes

> Send local image bytes to a current Together vision model and stream the description.

<Warning>
  Together retired the source's `meta-llama/Llama-Vision-Free` serverless model. Select a current vision model from the [Together serverless catalog](https://docs.together.ai/docs/serverless/models) before running. See [Together vision inputs](https://docs.together.ai/docs/inference/vision/overview).
</Warning>
