Scott Wyden: Being a color blind photographer

Scott Wyden Imagery has a nice post about “Being a color blind photographer“.

It has its moments. I am not going lie and say I just get by because I don’t. I need help like other color blind photographers out there. In fact, when I was in college and taking the color course I needed help then. My color blindness isn’t as bad as some others. Some people have it really bad. I get some orange and browns mixed up. Sometimes a dark blue and black can look the same. For me it depends on the colors that are next to each other and then other colors surrounding them. When it is dark out it makes it really tough.

    Hi. I am an advisory teacher in Luton UK, for pupils with visual impairment.
    I have a young student who would like to do a General Certificate in Secondary Education in Photography. He has had squint surgery in the past but none was sucessful. Consequently, he has not developed full 3D vision.
    it is not a query I have had from a school before and I would appreciate any suggestions from yourself.

    Can I add that my daughter is a professional photographer and she and I are very impressed to see the standard of your work.

    My thanks for you time.
