A mate of mine sent me a photo to my phone the other day, it was a photo of me holding his son as a baby. The photo was from about thirty years ago. The photo was small on my phone screen, and the photo was badly composed with very poor light, and also poor image quality. But non of that mattered when I saw the photo, as the photo gave me a lovely feeling, of a time and a place that I had long forgotten about.
As I was looking at the photo, it gave me a happy and emotional feeling. It reminded me of a happy and special time in my life, when I lived with my mate and his family.
I do have more recent photos of me and my mate with his family, and other recent stuff with my family. But non of the recent stuff seems to give me the same sort of emotion.
Maybe a photo has to have a certain amount of time to pass, to evoke such emotional memories.
Possibly fifteen or twenty years maybe?
