Too many photos, too few memories : Comments

By Bernard Toutounji, published 21/10/2013

The more we obsess with taking a photo of every moment in life (moments that more often than not have no need of being captured) the less we have the chance to live that life.

<< Do people go back and look at photos a great deal Ludwig? >>

Candide, no doubt there’s a complete spectrum from those who never do to those who do it all the time.

But even if photos get put away, unsorted, unindexed and virtually forgotten about, it is still great to rediscover them many years later reminisce as you go through them.

<< Do we even bother to look at the images other people post on social media, or are they just visual wallpaper? >>

They’re good within your close circle of friends, I guess. But otherwise not of much value. I dunno. I’m not a social media person.

But I have put up over 40 000 photos on Flickr. However they are mostly of a scientific nature (botanical and geological).
