In the grand scheme of things, photos are still “modern” since they’ve “only” been around since the 19th century. Even a hundred years after cameras, as we know them today, became mass produced, it was still a rather niche tool, as they were expensive, skill-intensive and one had to develop the film themselves.

Only in the 90s, did digital cameras democratize photography since there was no longer any risk of ruining or wasting costly film. Now, of course, we all have excellent cameras in our pockets and it’s not at all unusual to take literally hundreds of pictures in a day, if one is so inclined.
