Let alone including yourself in the picture. I know how you look like.
Let alone including your loved ones in the picture.
Even when their disappointment of having to face away from the monument is clearly visible in the photo.
And then you make them do stuff like ‘hold the sun in your hands’ or whatever.
That seems typical of the selfish nature of the world today (not your fault). But in ten years time you’ll have forgotten some of the details. In twenty years time some of the people in the photo won’t be here anymore and you’ll enjoy looking at them. In 40 years time your memory will be hazy. In 80 years time you’ll be a memory, someone’s old relation they only remember from photos.
