Aw, thank you AA! So cool! I love the idea of the exhibit, although selfishly I am disappointed that almost all the subjects are old people. Oh well. There is one young guy who is kind of cute, but if it were up to me it would have been all hot guys.

I agree with devogirl, I wish there were more photos of young blinds. One of them is reasonably cute.
Blindness is not my primary dev attraction, but it still pushes my dev button.

Thanks, AA! This pushes my dev buttons too. Blindness was actually my #1 attraction until a few years ago & can still get me going.

The Perkins School for the Blind has put thousands of photos from its archives online. It's great for a history nerd like me: www.flickr.com/photos/perkinsarchive/sets/There are also sets of portraits, especially from the personal collection of former director Michael Anagonos. Not all are of blind people, but many are. I just love those 19th century portraits. www.flickr.com/photos/perkinsarchive/sets/72157632748030085/And thank you, Devogirl! I've seen some of the portraits on this site, but nothing like the volume seen here. |
