I just read a great article on Edutopia News called Lighting the Way in which photography is a revelation, and a learning tool, for visually impaired students.

Seeing beyond their sight, these teenagers used sound and skill to click and shoot when they were prompted by the "sound shadows."

I love to read stories like this. When I ski again this winter, I'm going to talk about this story with my blind students. (I'm an adaptive ski instructor) Having a blind skier use his/her camera on the slopes would make for an interesting photo journal.

Are you up to the challenge?

You can read the directions by following the link above, but since I'm assuming that you're not blind, you need to get a buddy to supervise the safety of your actions. Please post your blind picture results.
