Sorry, horrible title. I couldn't resist.
"Blind photographer" isn't a phrase that would spring to most people's minds readily, but not only are there such, there is -- of course -- a blog dedicated to blind photography. From what I can tell, the photographers featured here aren't totally blind, but they are legally blind. For example, I originally stumbled on this blog after reading about Craig Royal, who writes "My peripheral vision is blurred and the central vision is obscured by a white blindspot." and who processes his pictures with the aid of Photoshop and a telescope.
In other words, the blindness in question, while not complete, is very real and has a real effect on the images produced. Indeed, the photographs on the site have a character all their own and, in my personal estimation, are just plain good art.
