Modern life is strange. Before technology developed to where it is now, photographs had to be taken on film stock, developed, picked up from the shop and posted to the recipient. It could take over a week before you even saw the photo you'd taken. And it's not that long ago either. Then digital cameras arrived around the Millennium, followed by rudimentary camera phones until we reach today and most camera phones take better images than film cameras like my Olympus OM10. And images of course can now be sent to the recipient in seconds. This image is an example, taken by my friend on Northumberland it's a new bird feeder (in the rain) he'd just made. I like getting these digital snaps, a great way to keep in touch. I guess in the old days you'd not bother taking a photo of a bird feeder, film was quite expensive.
