If you really want to remember a moment, try not to take a photo

TED published an article which photographers may be interested to read. In short it talks about the reasons why sometimes it is useful to not take photos. A few key talking points:

1) In one study, students were told to take photos of objects at a museum — and they remembered fewer of the overall objects they had photographed.

2) cameras, as amazing as they are, can’t compare to what the brain is capable of with input from the eyes and the ears.

I think we should learn the “Art” of not taking photographs too :)
