Photos

As life has evolved, every aspect of human life has evolved with it - almost nothing has been left behind. With that, our reliance on these modern aspects of life has increased. This in turn follows one of the most basic functions humans should rely on. Memory. Our minds are brilliant photographers who capture the earth for what is is but in the passing generations we don't seem to consider that anymore. Anywhere you go, everyone's phones are out clicking picture after picture trying to get the perfect shot and angle to post on their social media, or just take to admire in the near future. But what many don't realize is that at some point we forget about what's actually in front of us and instead focus on preserving it forever. By not looking at whats in front of us with what nature has given us we lose some part of the beautiful experience of enjoying nature in person. 

That is not to say that photography is useless though, it is art, it is truth, and it is also manipulation. Photography can capture the beauty in life when no one else can see it. It is telescoped into an unbiased or biased opinion depending on its beholder. It lets us see into the past and the life we don't remember anymore. Photography is powerful but it is also dangerous and as with everything in life everything has its powers and dangers. All we need to do is know when and how to use this beautiful gift that humans have been blessed with.
