“I’ve been looking so long at these pictures of you, that I almost believe that they’re real”, sings The Cure on their 1989 album, Disintegration. This emotional song about longing and lost love reminds us to appreciate the moments we have now; and with smartphones and the incredible technology in cameras today, we can capture these moments to make them last forever.
