Questions To Think about???? In a world where people are posting thousands of images every minute of the day; are we becoming a stronger society of photographers or are we flooding the world of cyber space with awful photographs??? When using sites like Facebook, Instagram, are we now becoming more visual, do we define our lives by posting images (a daily photo essay)??? Or are we just over thinking the medium in which we are communicating; like moving from writing letters to sending emails?
