Why Facebook Images Look Awful
I've often joked that no matter how much television may improve in the future, people will still be watching
reruns of "I Love Lucy" on them. Despite the march of technology,

No matter how fancy or sophisticated our cameras / phones become, no
matter how miraculous an engineering achievement they represent, people will
always be taking pictures that look like the ones gracing this blog post. (Always!)
The photos shown here are real snapshots taken across the decades using
popular instamatics of the day. In all cases, the scene looked
perfectly good to the eye, and after all, doesn't a camera just capture how it
looks to the person shooting it?
