Photograpy changes what we remember

I am getting more interested in photography after i took this course, and i learned a lot through reading the stories. i really believe that photography can change our memory. As time goes on, our memory will probably become weaker and weaker, even though we can try to record some important events by using words, it is really difficult to present them exactly correct. It is easier for people to remember how a person or a place looks when they look at the photo instead of reading hundreds of words. Therefore, only when photography is created, can our memories stay longer and clearer. If we take photos in our wedding party or birthday party,we will never forget this special moment in our life. Photos can always remind our memory, it seems that our experiences are reappearing in our mind while we are looking at the photos from previously to currently, and i really enjoy these feelings.
