Photographs why do people want them?

TheCatWoman

Honestly photographs freak me out, not just ones of me, but ones of others too, I often don't recognise myself or others in photographs and I'm not really into photo's of things either. I know most people are ok with them and make photography a hobby, but even the idea of taking a photograph let alone having one taken of me puts me in a state of near panic and I don't know why? I don't really understand what people get out of photographs.

  • I photograph classic cars I’m restoring with a smart phone. When disassembling I’m able to record the exact locations of small parts it helps with wiring routes when reassembling as it can be many months later.

    Looking at the recent nature photos lately has reignited an old interest, I have got my camera out of the garage and have been looking at new filters. I only photograph nature, when a good shot happens I feel a sense of achievement, I’m planning to go out more,  hopefully it will be good for my mental health.

    I share your hatred of being photographed, there are few photos of me in them,  my mother has about 30 albums of printed photos, I don’t know what to do with them when she’s gone. We have two stacker boxes from my in-laws, feel mean to throw them away but am I just keeping them until my children bin them, they definitely have no interest in them. It’s why I keep all my photos digital, 1,000’s of photos stored in a small space.
