This YouTube video is about a man who collects photographs of people he doesn't know.  It sounds strange but is actually quite interesting.  He buys these photos from people selling them at flea markets.  As well, they aren't just any old  photographs but each photographs he owns tells a story who is in the photo or what has occured in the photo.  I think it's incredible, the stories that a single photograph can tell.  They talk to him, he says. 

It's hard for me to really think about it now, because of how young I am, but when I die what will be left of me probably will just be photographs.  It makes me hope that my life tells an interesting enough story that someone would pick it up were it to end up being sold in some place like a garage sale or flea market.  We all want to be remembered for something, don't we?

Either way, it's a hobby I've never thought about but after seeing this video, something I might take up.
