Get the Picture!
Viewing the World through the iPhone Camera
by Judy Dixon

In braille, BRF, Word, or DAISY, $15.00

The camera on an iPhone or iPad does a great deal more than take 
photos! Just ask Judy Dixon, who not only takes panoramic photos of 
her new patio, but also clicks the shutter to identify her apricot 
sweater, pull out an Andrew Jackson bill, scan a barcode at Whole 
Foods, do FaceTime with a friend in Portugal, and so much more! Now 
she' sharing what she knows in her new book: Get the Picture: Viewing 
the World With the iPhone Camera. Judy tested and rated hundreds of 
apps to find those most accessible to blind users.

In this book, Judy has applied the knowledge she has gained from 
months of research on iPhone photography and has put into practice 
strategies enabling people who are blind to enjoy creating and 
sharing their own photographs of the world around them. Whether 
you're interested in taking pictures of your newborn for the family 
album, or your prized tomatoes for your Facebook page, Judy covers 
all aspects of taking pictures - from photographing people to 
photographing sunsets. And every iPhone user will want to read her 
sections on using FaceTime and Skype!
