True Vision
Photographer Pete Eckert has never seen his work. He took to photography after a medical condition robbed him of his sight -- and has been making hauntingly beautiful images ever since. Armed with a crystal clear mental vision and a wicked sharp wit, Eckert senses his subjects with a self-described "sonar" and records their image on medium format film with long and sometimes multiple exposures. The only gage he has by which to judge his success or failure is the comments and feedback he gets from viewers. And I, for one, am thoroughly impressed.
