My wife and I are both horrible photo takers so I guess our lives will just be a big mystery once we’re gone.
The government will do it for you 😇😇😇
“How will you remember all the good times if you never take pictures?”
“With my memory…”
Memory fades and changes, but even so, enjoying the feelings and reminiscing are more meaningful than any photo. I hate this meme though (I know you’re not OP - just venting) because I’m a woman who never takes photos and just enjoys the moment. There are lots of us. It really doesn’t have to be gendered.
True, i know guys who take thousands of pictures. But you still, if i think about someone taking a ton of selfies i don’t think about a dude. If me and my 8 close friends pull together all of our pictures we’re not getting 8 pictures of us.
as a professional photographer i’ve come to value lived experiences so much more since starting doing photography. on vacations i’ll take a couple of photos of a pretty place or a person (with their consent of course) and then turn off my camera and let myself be in the moment
it saddens me to see people with their phones taking photos of every nook and crany that they’ll probably look at once or twice after, and leave without even having seen the beauty around them with their own eyes
This is also something I (luckily, I like to think) realized many years ago on my first trip abroad by myself (well, I went and met with a cousin of mine who is the same age as me) when I was 19 - when you’re focused on collecting pictures of everything (as he did to a level I jokingly refere to as “photographic diarrhea”), you’re not just living the moment.
Mind you, looking at any of the handful of pictures I made back then does bring me back to the memory of the whole thing (though the wierd details such as how the top floor of the WTC back then - pre 9/11 - was basically a large food court of fast food brands aren’t in the photos), but then again me thinking about it right now does the same.
I was there. If i don’t remember it it’s not important.
The world is better seen with your eyes than your phone.
My memory is blank. Unless you show me a photo of me at a place, only then will I remember the event.
photos of my cat: 10,000,000 but shes so cute! 🥰
That, sir, is only one photo.
I didn’t want to derail the post but had to pay cat tax… 🐈
Your cat appears to malfunctioning or maybe stoned. You may want to return it to the factory for service.
She had a dreamy licky, that she enjoys
Greetings Hrothgar, a fine day to you and your brethren. What news comes from Yondrha, beyond the Troll Gates of Ananhk?
The trolls are advancing, they have sensed the absence of the dogs of war and are trying their luck
The neighbourhood trolls
Fly now then, noble one! Lest ye be smited (smoten? smitten?) by the return of the Wolfish ones, and sip the milk of paradise
And over 4 thousand of image/video memes
Haha, this is spot on. I don’t think I have a single photo of me and my best friends together the last 15 years. It’s just something we never do.
Do you care so little about your friends you need a picture to remind you of what they look like!?!?
/s
we make it a point to take one (1) every year. No more, no less. On new year’s eve
Girl boring guy quirky.
