If you have access to HBOmax why not watch the 30 min documentary called Dark Light: The Art of Blind Photographers. The film explores how 3 blind photographers, Pete Eckert, Bruce Hall, and Henry Butler create their work and explores questions such as can vision succeed where eyesight fails? Can a blind person make meaningful photographs? How can the creator appreciate his own work?
