Next thing you know they'll have blind people piloting starships.

I bet they occasionally take really good pictures because they have no idea what is going on.

staplermofo: Hey, I'm going to be blind one day and I'd like to take the occasional photograph.

Why bother?

FTFA: The subjects include something you hate most about yourself, the manifestation of something invisible, something beautiful to you and something you are not allowed to look at.

How can you tell a blind person they aren't allowed to look at something?

I have a blind co-worker, and his favorite phrase is "see you later". It's awesome to see new hires react when he says it, because they're like "omfg, did he say that? how should we react?!".

anyone else see pornography?

They've got braille cameras now?

Wrap their cane tip in foam rubber?

We have a winner.....

LOL, I get it, cuz, he's blind, so...

You have idiot co-workers. If a blind person said, "see you later" to me, I'd say something like, "ya, cya" back to them, cuz why the hell not?

Societal standards still apply. Maybe it's a trap for blind pedophiles.

Do you knock people out of wheelchairs and pee on them too?

Only on days that end in a 'y'

Is that a Geordie LaFarge reference? Never watched TNG much, but I was impressed how in only 20 years TV went from the stereotype of the jolly Scottish ship's engineer to the stereotype of the extraordinarily talented blind Negro.

Tobin_Lam: I bet they occasionally take really good pictures because they have no idea what is going on.

Yeah, like how Beethoven was blind and had wooden hands!

Pretty sure they did this on NCIS.

Stapler, I was wondering what the reason was for your photos looking the way they do.

I like that one blind lady who dresses babies up as flowers and green beans. Them are some impressive photos.

Boy there's a lot of insensitive folks on Fark. The truth is, the average person cannot tell the difference between an image taken by a person who can see vs a person who cannot see. Okay, I'll show you... which picture below was taken by a blind person?

They are both more likely to be made by a seeing person because there are more seeing people that have cameras. Are those supposed to be pictures of the same thing? Is the first picture heavily edited to appear normal?

Poe: Pretty sure they did this on NCIS.

Yes they did. Very good.

/Navy must be the most dangerous branch of the military.

kakarot251: anyone else see pornography?

Not the students, apparently.
/What's braille for "tits?"

/quick and dirty

I smell colors and taste landscapes

torgo jr.: I smell colors and taste landscapes

Oh man, I lol'd for like a minute.

Mass hysteria, dogs and cats, living together...

By definition, blind people aren't allowed to look at anything.

FTA: '"It's fun, but hopefully also thought-provoking," Deifell said.'

It makes me think, "what a bunch of morons."

mikaloyd: kakarot251: anyone else see pornography?

I have! It's great!

hahahahahha
made my night

An okd blind guy once wrote an amazing book about a movie shot by a photographer, with lots of great description of light and color.

Too bad nobody knows what ever happened to him, besides the claw marks on the floor of his apartment, and all the tape measures nailed up everywhere.

/obscure?
//god I've never been afraid like this

BearToy: Stevie Wonder uses the Canon AE1

Bah. Beat me to it.

That's gotta be damn near to the definition of unselfishness. Not being able to see yet making pictures for those who can.

Good way to save on film.

Next thing you know, there'll be blind cartoonists (new window)

Actually, a blind guy who used to come to my club all the time (who recently passed away bout a month or two ago, unfortunately), was a blind masseuse. He set up a massage table at a Hurricane Katrina benefit I threw at the club (before I even worked there), and gave me one of the best massages I've ever had in my life. He even picked me up back-to-back in order to crack my spine.

After he gave me a massage, he took my picture on a digital camera. He asked me to look at it afterwards to make sure I got in the picture. He would take pictures at other shows at the club too, and some of them were quite good.

That is pretty damn cool, I must say

This is so stupid! The next thing you know they will let deaf people compose music and call it great art...
