show caption on image when hover – Twitter bootstrap

I’m trying to display a caption when someone hovers over images. But I couldn’t find a way to get this done.

I’m using Twitter Bootstrap.

Here is my HTML for one of the images. I don’t know how to put the content into it, so that it only displays when someone goes with the mouse over it.

  <div class="col-lg-2 col-md-3 col-sm-4 col-xs-12 thumb">
        <a class="thumbnail caption-style-1 model-thumbnail " href="#">
          <img class="img-responsive" src="http://placehold.it/245x347" alt>
        </a>
  </div>

enter image description here

    Here is a cool example inspired of this website.

    ul.img-list {
  text-align: center;
}

ul.img-list li {
  display: inline-block;
  height: 150px;
  position: relative;
  width: 150px;
}

span.text-content span {
  display: table-cell;
  text-align: center;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

span.text-content {
  background: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
  color: white;
  display: table;
  height: 150px;
  left: 0;
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  width: 150px;
  opacity: 0;
}

ul.img-list li:hover span.text-content {
  opacity: 1;
}
    <ul class="img-list">
  <li>
      <img src="http://placehold.it/150x150"/>
      <span class="text-content"><span>1st image</span></span>
  </li>
    <li>
      <img src="http://placehold.it/150x150"/>
      <span class="text-content"><span>2nd image</span></span>
  </li>
    <li>
      <img src="http://placehold.it/150x150"/>
      <span class="text-content"><span>3rd image</span></span>
