Is there a list where we can discuss photography? 
I'd like to take some pictures of my daughter (a toddler) and am
thinking of getting a video recorder for her second birthday. 
Would love to talk about this with those who are interested.

Hi,

I may not see the photos, but I see no reason why they canot be posted.
I am not the moderator, but since when do we have to be so "politically
correct" that we react negatively to pictures?

Photography is part of our world too.  In fact, I am in the process of
learning to use a small digital camcorder so I can make videos of some
of my speeches, something I have been asked to do on many occasions.
Although there are challenges I have learned how to create good videos
now.  Many blind people own cameras and use them often.  So, why not
post the results for those who can see them so long as the poster also
gives a description for the rest of us?

Hi all,
i guess you didnt see the several emails i posted here asking if i could
post photos.

over the last month or two i asked at least 3-4 times, I got a few
replies offlist saying to go ahead, that those who could see with aid of
enlargement or other means would enjoy them.

so, I am so sorry you found my sharing of the animals i so love
offensive / or as you say "politically incorrect" 
but i think you missed where i was coming from entirely.

I love my service dog, i love my pets, I feel so happy to have found
this group.
my intent was to share with like hearts the animals i love.

hope everyone had a good holiday.

bunny

politically correct.>
