Everyone should be able to feel the power of great photography – beyond just seeing. Here, visually impaired skier and six-time Paralympic Games medal winner, Menna Fitzpatrick, experiences Canon ambassador Samo Vidic's stunning photograph in a whole new way.

In the film, Samo shows Menna his powerful black-and-white photograph of Slovenian Paralympian swimmer Darko ?uric?.

Not only is Samo on hand to explain his image, but Canon PRISMAelevate XL software and Arizona printer series further enhance Menna's experience. She's able to touch the image and feel how Darko is powering through the water, while hearing his incredible story.

On one plinth, Samo's image description is printed in braille, detailing the composition, the stark contrast between light and shade, Darko's movements through the water, and his incredible story.

On another, the photograph is printed in relief, making it a fully tactile experience. Menna can touch it and feel the differences in texture – the bubbles around Darko’s head and face, and the sheen of the black goggles covering his eyes.
