Video, sometimes it is amazing to think about, aside from the fact that it is difficult to reproduce in the next second, most of the above places no longer exist today in 2022. That is to say, the moment I pressed the camera button/shutter, whether I knew it or not, it was, to a certain extent, a moment in history that was frozen.

When I was visiting a photography exhibition, I heard the guide share earnestly with the audience: "Take more photos of life (states), these images will be invaluable in the future."

Now I kind of understand.
