My parents have saved tons of boxes of old family photographs growing up. They are fun to look at from time to time, because it used to be a bit harder to create photos. I wonder if the next generation of people will collect moments the same way we used to, seeing how quick and easy things are posted online. I’m sure many of them don’t even have pictures saved locally somewhere and rely on social media and the cloud to store their past.

    I also think people treasure images less just because of how much they take today

    Thought so too, we took a tons of photo without giving it a thought, because it cost no money to do so, where in the era of film roll, it cost money for every single click, so we only snap whatever we think we would treasure.
