Tommy Edison, the positively radiant blind film critic, is back to explain how a blind person uses everybody’s favourite instant photo sharing service: Instagram. He’s explained how he used his iPhone before and what colour meant to him but his use of Instagram might be the most impressive thing yet. Reminder: Tommy Edison has been blind since birth and yet, his pictures are as good as yours! His captions are hilarious! He hashtags! Seriously, check out how he uses Instagram above and take a peek at his Instagram feed here. Instafollow.
Here’s a sampling of his pictures:

“His pictures are as good as yours!”
Surely it’s more appropriate to say that most Instagram users’ photos are as good as a blind man’s?
I don’t get it, what is Instagram? Some filter app? Haven’t we been able to do all this in Photoshop for years?
Yes, because everyone is a photoshop pro.
