I'm new to the forum. I've been making photographs for all of my 57 years (well, maybe not the first 10), and now find myself in a wheelchair. I'm figuring out how to A) access the street, B) juggle driving my chair while taking pix, C)learning to work with new limitations, and D) seeing things from a different perspective. I'd love to connect with other photographers who drive chairs.

My style is very similar; however, rather than " stand in one place for a while," my physical disability forces me to "sit in one place for a while." I literally cannot walk/move around and take photos, as others as suggesting, especially since I use a cane, crutch or rollator when I walk. Of course, that somewhat works to my advantage because law enforcement officials and other people assume I am resting (which I actually am) when I linger in one place. So I just take photos to my heart's content until I decide to move on to a different spot.

I'm in a wheelchair, for the past ten years or so. I'm just starting to get back to my photography, figuring out how to do it while seated. I am interested to see how this different perspective changes my images.
