Photographs are a means of self gratification, taken to fill in the empty gap formed when an experience is unfulfilled.
For example, the closer a relationship you are with someone, the lesser photos you may take with them. For example parents and siblings.
We take photos of things we are afraid to let go, afraid to lose. In the form of photographs, we think that we set the moment in stone, but what we have actually done, is mutilated the experience. It is no longer complete.
If something/someone etc is important enough, taking photographs would spoil the atmosphere. It signifies that the other person/thing is not important enough, and that's why you need to take those photos to add value to their self worth.
Its depreciating and somewhat humiliating in an unspoken form of passive aggression.
Don't live life behind the lenses of a camera.
Its not worth sharing each unique experiences with everyone. Let others have a chance to experience their own adventures and wonders.
Its not your place to take it away from them.
Erratic Behaviour
