"for a lot of people, the photos you take on a trip become more important than the experience.” Cheap photography is to blame for this more than anything else.

"for a lot of people, the photos you take on a trip become more important than the experience.” Cheap photography is to blame for this more than anything else. I was transiting through Dubai a few years back and spent a bit of time at the Burj Khalifa. There is a fountain at the base that does a performance every so often. The majority of people were not seeing the fountain directly at all, they were watching it through their mobile phones. It was a weird sight. I personally didn't take a video since you can see much better ones on Youtube than the one I'd have been able to take with trying to keep other people's phones out of it.
