Agree with every word, this is about how I doi t, worth the rest to get the odd one, the odder the better as a rule. Getting someone to evaluate takes a little longer.

Why? Because I can take as many as I like and only keep the good ones. Granted most all get deleted but it's surprising how many I do get that are keepers. One that comes to mind was 1 picture I took of my dog. I had been taking a few family pictures and had my phone in my hands. My dog was going to follow me in the house and I turned and fired and by good old blind dumb luck got a beautiful picture of him looking up at me. I got another great shot of Old faithful in Yellowstone National Park. The key thing I found I need to remember is where the camera lens is. I delete far more pictures then I keep but it doesn't matter either. As the old saying goes, even a blind squirrel comes across a nut every now and then. <grin> ----- Original Message ----- From: Cara Quinn To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, June 04, 2013 12:41 PM Subject: Re: taking photos when blind Hi Robert, Voiceover will tell you when the image is focused but not centered. When the camera recognizes a face, then I believe that VO will say where that face is in the frame, but for objects in general, VO will not be able at present, to tell you where that object is in the frame, simply because it does not know what object you are aiming at. the idea of focus is different from when an object is centered or not. Focus means that the subject of the image is being seen clearly by the camera so it will produce a clear image when the shot is taken. Does this make sense? The two concepts are different… HTH and have a great day!

How does one focus the image correctly? I read somewhere that VoiceOver is supposed to tell you when the image is centered. I have never seen that happen. Thanks for your help.
