You might have to use different approaches to get the shots, but I'm sure you can capture some of the world's beauty as you want to. I'm only a beginner at this, but for what it's worth, I'll give you some hints. Don't take photos with your eyes alone. Listen, feel where the sun is, note any movement you can see, and don't be afraid to take some shots even if you don't quite know what is in front of you. Sometimes something might appeal to your senses and you'll know it's that moment to take a shot. Viewfinders are confusing. You might find it better to ignore them. Perch the camera on your forefhead instead, which will help you get it straight if nothing else. Just walk around with any camera you feel comfortable with. I just use simple disposable film cameras at the moment, and although they're not good for everything, I've been very satisfied with most of my results. See my YouTube channel and judge for yourself.. You may or my not like what I've done, but it might show you some possibilities. http://www.youtube.com/user/visigoth999 And for some useful discussion by many photographers who don't see very well, try the Blind Photographers' Site. http://blindphotographers.org/ To answer your blog post directly, yes I'm grateful for what I have. Getting into photography has given me a new respect for my senses, and has made me appreciate the world around me in much finer detail than I did before I lost most of my sight. In a strange way, it's been a liberation! Hope this is some help. Very good luck! Hey, come on, there are thousands of us blind and visually impaired photographers.
