What's the point of taking so many photos?

I am not a professional photographer, but I am an out-and-out "selfie maniac". There are tens of thousands of photos in my photo album, and I will keep any one that is worth remembering by people around me. So is it really meaningful to take so many photos? Where does its meaning exist? "

At that time, China was in the late Qing Dynasty, a declining feudal dynasty. Therefore, the camera recorded the appearance and life of the late feudal nobles. Up to now, it has intuitively presented us with the scene of the late Qing Dynasty and a glimpse of the true face of Empress Dowager Cixi. These photos are more convincing and intuitive than words and portraits. At that time, the setting of cameras was more complicated, and no more cameras flowed into the people for ordinary people to use. After thousands of years of world culture and the progress of Chinese civilization, with the development and progress of science, cameras are becoming more and more dexterous, and there are more and more brands, from Nikon and Canon with a price of 10,000 yuan to the simplest fool machine.

? I have tens of thousands of photos, but only more than 100 of them were taken with professional cameras, but I still regard every photo as a treasure, because I think every photo has a soul and has its own ideas and original intentions. Because the people recorded in each of my photos are people who have appeared in my life and even played a decisive role in my life; Because every photo is a past I can't go back to, every smile and every move at that time is unforgettable, so I cherish it all the more.

We often say that "all things must come to an end", but it is important to have such a feast, just like epiphyllum, which only blooms briefly, but you can't deny its splendor and fragrance. The significance of cameras and photos lies in turning short-lived beauty into eternity. Flowers are in bud, petals are gradually opening and delicate flowers are in full bloom. Every point of flowering has its splendor, which opens every year, falls every year, and does not meet every year. Every flower has its own meaning. Although there are thousands of similar flowers in the world, only photos can record the beauty of that kind of flower. As the saying goes, "beautiful skins are the same, and interesting souls are one in a million." People are like flowers, and flowers are like people. This is the eternal meaning of photos.

"Everything is that people don't always rest, and tears flow first when they want to talk." This is the sadness in the works of Li Qingzhao, a poetess, which is more mixed with nostalgia for her husband and the good past. With the Sri Lankan people gone, everything is disconsolate. This may be a dusty photo, which can remind us of the past. Looking at the person in the photo, with charming and dependent eyes and smiling eyes, you may feel that she is still with you and has never gone far. Homesickness is a small stamp, so a photo evokes the good old days. People in their thirties are sitting in the afternoon sun, shaking wrinkled hands and opening dusty photo albums. At this time, a photo may be worn out but still precious, because it bears the ambition of youth, and they can recall the youthful years when they met their classmates and teenagers. It is my deep affection for my late lover and old friend whom I haven't seen for many years.

Maybe some photos were taken by accident, or maybe you have forgotten their existence. But I don't know that it may become a proof of an event or a stage in the future. It can more intuitively show the situation at that time. After 60 years of reform and opening up, the development of China has shocked the people of China. If there are no photos, I believe that countless future generations can't imagine the scene of China dozens or hundreds of years ago, let alone feel the progress of the era of scientific and technological development in this period. I believe this is why there is a photo exhibition.
