Real Blind Photogs?

**Tin Can** · 6-Sep-2023, 12:16

My vision is degrading fast now

Outside air makes it worse

seeing double makes typing tough

just rejoined the Blind Ham club

but I am not a chatty Ham

Are there any actually blind photographers in any era?

I am working on distance cords and guidelines

before it just winks out

As we all know how to work in total darkness

I know I can can

Cheers!

I'm sorry to hear of your vision problem. I worry a little about that too.

Maybe the direction to go is to use bleary lenses with greasy filters to approximate in your camera the way you actually see. It could help people understand what you see and still offer expressive opportunities.

Very good idea

Thank you!
