We marked Eve's birthday with a trip to @danslenoirlondon today.
A remarkable experience, and a real hands-on insight into the world without vision that she had lived through latterly.
I don't think I've ever been anywhere so utterly, impenetrably dark. The closest experience I can think of was a tour I once did at the Ilford Photo factory. The very darkest area was, as you might expect, the film production line, and even that had occasional tiny betalights to navigate by.
We went for a drink and a wander round afterwards; the late afternoon light was great, and perhaps perceptually intensified by the couple of hours we had spent in the dark.
Today's actual photo after the jump.
