Point and click. It takes practice, and I'd suggest using a digital camera
so you don't waist film, but once you get the hang of it, and with a bit of
sighted help, you can get some pretty darn good shots.

Yes, I agree with you totally on this Diane.  People comment how  fabulous
we are and wonderful that we can do our crafting.  I take the  compliment
and file it.  It is the stories I hear, " that my Mom or Grandma  use to do
that and then her sight got bad and she does not do it any  more."  Those
folks I aske, "Why doesn't she do it?"  When they tell  me due to her bad
eye sight, I tell them I can't see anything.  I encourage  them to get out
there and help them find what they need to get started  again.
 
I of course tell them about the Krafters Korner.org and tell them to check
us out.
 
I know I use to wish before I went blind and was working 2 jobs, that I
wished I had more time to do what I loved to do with my crafts and taking
pictures.  I had just started being interested in photography and had taken
some classes in a local camera shop.  Two days before I had my surgery and
went blind, I was at a Dachshund Specialty dog show  and after my male long
hair won first place in his classification, I was lying down on my tummy on 
the  ground snapping pictures of little doxies jumping over rrails in  the

agility  part of the dog show.   So I haven't found a way  to do that, but 
crafting is something I will never give up.
