Blind Photography

Deprived of central vision, Bob White depends on his peripheral vision to see the world around him. While legally blind and unable to work or drive a car, he still manages to keep his passion for photography burning bright, albeit with some work-arounds due to his condition.

People like him really have enhanced senses to detect the surrounding better. He really makes me re-think about how lucky I am to appreciate the beauty of vision and hopefully a better perspective beyond the sight
I agree with roentarre. And, you have a real sense for broad issues related to photography. I like that we never know what issue you’ll be shedding light on. Nice work!
Simply wow !
Hi. Your site displays incorrectly in Mozilla, but content excellent! Thanks for your wise words:)
I have known Bob for over 40 years. Nothing he does anymore surprises me!
Dewayne, please tell us more!
Bob and I were stationed together in 1967-68 with the 636th Combat Support Group in the Philippines. We became fast friends and have stayed in touch all these years. He was a bit of Photohog back then and always had nice equipment. We use to ride a lot of dirt bikes when I came up to the Ozarks. When Bob’s eyesight began to fail him he would still come out to the woods and visit us. He is a lucky, lucky man to have a wife like Julie.
