In praise of bad photography

In digital photography, there can be too much emphasis on achieving tack sharp images, vivid colours and creating perfect lighting conditions.

But our brain's internal 'photographic' memory can be a lot more fuzzy and imperfect. 

A bit like images through a lens from an old folding camera...
