But that you've overcome that (with gracious help) just makes your photography that much more impressive. Most impressive. Thanks for sharing - great post. I had no idea, Scott.

I go by what I have been told since I was young. My father was color blind to the point where so many colors messed together. It also goes past him too so it runs in my family.<br><br>I appreciate your comments Mike! It is very possible that you are correct. I go by what I have been told since I was young.

I appreciate your comments Mike!

I too am color deficient and near-sighted and too chicken to look into surgery. I often confuse light purple and blues, and certain shades of green and yellow. I often also can't see how bad red is in skin tones and have someone else look over them, yet I have found a solution. Well, soft of. The ability to be more creative in post with Lightroom presets and Photoshop actions, and clients needs to have more dramatic photos that film could never give has enabled me to "get by" in terms of being happy with my own work and satisfying customers needs. I wish I wasn't, however I make the best of it. Not to split hairs, but you are probably color deficient, which is more commonly known as color blindness.
