Why Share Your Photos?

The website CYME shared an article entitled "The Culture of Sharing Images." The article opens with the statement, "The very first desire to share an image is undoubtedly that of transmitting the feelings it arouses while looking at it." That certainly makes sense. Why, though, should we share images? The article continues:

This cabinet of visual curiosities summons emotions and lists the territories that animate us: beauty, tenderness, poetry, the wow effect, memories, aspirations, the surges of the world or the bright side of life…. All this constitutes the foundation of this intimate catalogue, perhaps even an identity–a kind of modest and intellectual selfie, that of our inner being.
