Personally, after the new millennium, our country has entered an era of rapid development. All walks of life are driving in the fast lane.
As an ordinary citizen, I especially feel that industries closely related to our lives are developing rapidly, such as transportation, communication and automobiles. Just talk about communication. Before the mid-1990s, there were few fixed telephones, let alone mobile phones. I remember that there was a pager in 1997-98, and its function was similar to that of text messages later. Later, after 2000, fixed telephones became popular and were installed in almost every family. In a few years, the second generation of mobile phones began to spread, and their main functions were to make phone calls and send text messages. The loudest brands are Nokia and Motorola. Then when the time is relatively short, I won't mention the three generations and four generations of mobile phones. Don't say that the current 5G, first generation and English generation mean that the mobile phone is more powerful, and the function of 4g alone is shocking enough!
So some people say that mobile phones kill TV, newspapers and magazines, bookstores, flashlights, phonographs … many, many. This is true, the result of scientific and technological development and the embodiment of social progress.
In my impression, there is an industry that has really quietly withdrawn from the historical stage because of mobile phones. That's a photo studio! When did the photo studio in town disappear? What did the mobile phone photographer do later?
Have you ever taken black and white photos of young people born after 2000? Do you have any old photos at home? In the past, you had to have a one-inch photo, black and white, to go through any formalities. In graduation photo, the era when family photos were all black and white was probably before 1980s, when the business of photo studios was booming. Later, the business of mobile phone photographers was the same, and they could provide on-site service, and the photos were mainly color photos.
Here, I recall the scene of taking black and white photos in the photo studio. The camera is an old-fashioned mechanical camera, which is placed on a tripod. When adjusting the focal length, the photographer should plunge into the black cloth and put the film in the dark. The shutter is pressed by a rubber balloon.
An old photo is a story and a memory. Now that we have a high-pixel mobile phone, it's easy to take pictures. Just because it is convenient to take pictures, I remember less when I take more pictures, and there is nothing rare about old photos. It's amazing!
In fact, the photo studio has not completely disappeared, but has moved its position, such as ceremonial weddings and advertising companies. But the photo studio specializing in photography business can't be found anymore. ...
