A few weeks ago I was looking for a picture and I couldn't find it. I was totally devastated and it took a few days for me to realize that all my computers for the past few years were backed up on to my back up hard drive.
Ive never accessed the drive before and well for my first time I managed to located ALL my pictures since 2003. We weren't really digital until then. I was able to get the computer to access the images to my current computer. What I actually ended up doing was downloading them and now have over 30K image on my computer.
I did find that one image but only today did I scroll thru them, slowly. Unfortunately many are duplicated and there is some facial recognition thing there were the original images are kinda split up between faces, thing is some of these faces were in the background, strange I tell ya! Then there are pictures of the videos, just the start of the video - it became an image.
I re-experienced, my wedding, the birth of my youngest child, the graduations of the older kids, all our vacations: numerous trips to Disney, Hawaii, Vegas...
Our first videos had no sound recorded, trying to imagine what was being said by the action in the video lol. Oh and the number of videos I have when we did finally get a camera that recorded sound! I don't remember all these events, maybe cause I was always the one behind the camera.
I can't believe how many places we have gone over the years! I have been lucky I have to say, many people haven't been to half the places I have. There were so many trips my hubby and I were upset with each other but still managed to let the kids have a good time. Cant tell if they noticed but I remember.
If you've never been to a place before then yea it mades sense that you'd want to take a ton of pictures. Personally I have noticed that Ive started to take less and less pictures. It used to be about a hundred pics per event, these days maybe I take a dozen.
Remember to enjoy the moment with your family and get out from behind that camera.
