well i guess since there are deaf musicians in the world, why not blind photographers. Some people have talent no matter what impairment they may have.

That's what I thought - but on the flip side - given he most likely has an amazing imagination I'm sure he "sees" them in his heart, mind and soul.

There is a complex relationship between photography and visual impairment. It starts with blindness not being a black and white concept. Visual impairment, in general, and blindness, in particular, combine a wide array of visual abilities and challenges. Very few blind people see absolutely nothing.
Visit our site, Blind Photographers @ www.blindphotographers.org, to learn more about this and see more of our photography.

I have two visually impaired nephews (doesn't stop 'em from playing Nintendo!) :D I'll have to let them know about your site - they both have (or had) digital cameras.

Wow. Considering photography is a visual medium, it's hard to imagine how a blind person would create such interesting images. Surely they have some help?
I'm a big fan of photography from different perspectives. My friend gave her 2-year-old kid a Lomo camera and he took some amazing shots.
