I prefer endless scrolling my gallery rather than social media apps because it always gives warmth to my heart. There is some inexpressible pleasure in having to visit the photographs depicting highs and lows, happiness and sadness, and everything in between. Thank god to George Eastman who invented this wonderful device called camera.

The shape of photographs have changed over the years, but my favourite remains to be physical photographs which I preserve with utmost care. Unfortunately the younger Gen Z did not have much luck in this case. All they could do with memories was back them up in cloud drives.

The fun part of old photographs is its ability to transport you back in time and witness something you would never have. I saw my parents entering into a wedlock, my dad performing at the annual day, my mom all dressed up for the dance competition and myself in cradle (which I obviously don't remember), all through 4X6 sheet of paper.

With camera being fitted into our cant-get-away-from-it mobile phone, we tend to take 100s of photograph to get that one perfect pose. I realised other than increasing the load on my device storage, this has lost the charm of capturing that one not-so-perfect moment with awkward hands and face. One perfectly posed picture for Instagram might give you instant gratification but what an awkwardly taken photograph does is much more precious, something to remember and laugh at the next day.
