Very funny. Did one of those for my first show. What a pita! Could have used that then. It was my first and last one.

Ever seen the movie "Pecker"? There is a very funny sort of artist statement made by a NYC gallery owner about her new star photographer... who happens to be blind

there actually is a famous blind-ish photog in NYC, he has to use a magnifying glass and rope to measure focusing distance. GREAT tones in his prints though, and cool textures he found with a magnifying glass.

Someone posted a link about another blind-ish photographer just today. Legally blind is not quite the same as totally blind. So you are right. But the movie being a comedy, the photographer was totally blind...
