Photos that cannot remember everything
Hot 3 |
When I was young, I used to climb up to the mountaintop, using my eyes to see beautiful countryside sceneries, my ears to listen all sounds of the nature, my body to feel the touch of the wind, and my nose to smell different fragrances of flowers, grasses and trees. Till now, I can still remember the feelings of that very moment, which just like Chinese traditional pictures that I can even describe it in details.
Yesterday, when I was on my way home from the Summer Palace, at the entrance of it, I saw lots of people taking photos, in a way of “I got it, done.” They just neglected the beautiful flowers and pictures around the entrance. This action made me thought a lot. People now are fascinated in taking pictures, they do this when they visit some places, during the birthday parties, some special occasions, etc. I guess, they do this mainly just because they want to record the moment and remember the time. But I would like to say that if people rely too much on high tech, such as camera, cell-phones, to help record the very special moment, quite often, they would remember less than traditional way, unless they review the pictures from time to time. Why ? Because we took many pictures and just piled them up in the camera , cell-phones or computers, and seldom do we organized them in order. In such conditions, how can we remember that very moment when we got them?
Sadly, because the fast pace of lives, modern people have less time than before, and we cannot remember the moment through the traditional ways, we have to record the very moment by high-techs. In this way how can we remember accurately without fully participate ?I have a suggestion. When we take pictures, we could just write some key words on the back of pictures, such as when and where do we take it, and how do we feel at that moment. Besides, we have to review them from time to time in order to remember more. Anyway, we shouldn’t rely too much on high-techs, if we have free time, we had better appreciate special occasions in a traditional ways, that not just because we remember better, also, we could build good relationships with people around, for we communicate more and interact more than just using high-techs.

- I have mentioned the question as you. The sense of travel will gradually changed as the tourism becoming a normal activity.
I have travelled in a travelling team and found the important thing is taking photo and purchasing.
And I always traveling by myself from then, booking tickets and hotel , and do everything by myself. I think all parts of travelling is important experience in a travel. The feeling is important than photos, We can learn more in one place than visit sevel sight spots one time.

- This is very common nowadays. Most of the tourists spend too much time on taking photos, they just do ignore the essence of being on the trip.
I'd rather like going somewhere alone and enjoy the beautiful scenes. I do not often take pictures. When I feel it a must to do so, I choose an ideal angle to get some. When I am back home, I opt some nice ones and then save them. Sometimes, I recall those good places I ever visited by reviewing those pictures I keep on my laptop.
