Sometimes the photos we capture don’t appear as vibrant as they did through the viewfinder. That could be because of flat light, incorrect exposure settings, or a passing cloud blocking the sun.

Uploading images to social media is fast and easy, but not really the best primary way to share them, especially during the hectic holiday season. Emailing your favorite shots to friends and family members is an option, but that method has some uncertainty, too. And how many recipients save them after they see them? An image that exists only as a digital file has a fragile lifespan.
