That really blurry night photo on the carousel with part of your thumb and your date’s head out of frame? A few quick taps and *POOF* — deleted. It’s like it never even happened.
And what a shame that would be.
That's the message from Deleted Images, a website that believes photos in the digital discard pile should be treasured, just like their crisper, cleaner cousins.
“
I have a massive collection of similar photos from my years as a printer. Not so much out of focus, more light-leaks and damaged film.
Great to look at in their own right, but even better scanned and used as graphic elements.
Oh film.

I love accidental art-shots! Don't delete unless it's all black or all white.
Also, with digital storage media formats such as CD and DVD becoming obsolete, will we even be able to view all the good ones 15 years from now? Print that pic so it can be real.
