Terry,

In the past I use to be a Dachshund breeder.  I did this before I went
blind, but we continued breeding after I went blind.  I had gotten to be
known as a color Dachshund breeder.  What that means is there is an
array  of colors and patterns in the Dachshund breed besides coat lenth
[smooth, long  hair, 
wire].   What interested me was the geneology and what you would  get by
breeding 
this to that with whatever was in the background.

Sorry, I digress when I talk about Dachshunds.

My point here is my husband's job was caring for the puppies in a
litter.  
When I went blind he would take digital pictures of each  puppy.  I
would download them into my computer and he would tell me what  picture
was what.  I would name the pictures so I could identify the  file.
Example chocolate long hair female].  Now when I was sighted I  had my
adult Dachshunds pictures professionally done. 

So I had seen colors and patterns before I went blind of most of the
colors and patterns available in the Dachshund breed.  I had folks on
waiting  lists for certain colors, sex and coat.  When these baby
puppies were a  week old I would send out pictures of the pups along
with pics of their parents  to 
potential buyers.    People would come to actually see  puppies when
they  were 2 
or 3 weeks old.       From the time they came and left deposits.   the 
folkswere  invited back on a weekly basis to play with their puppies.
People that could not get back as frequently pictures would be sent to
them to see how their  puppy was growing.  

So I handled all the details on that with pictures and it did surprise
people when they came to my house and learned I was blind.

So even as a blind person we can value photos and why not learn how to
take some?

Joyce

PS Cindy,

Could I interest you in thinking about doing a photography  class???
