Should you delete the blurry photo or keep it for the story? Got my cat mid-yawn yesterday.

I was at my kitchen table trying to snap a shot of my tabby yawning. She stretched, mouth wide open, but when I checked the photo, her eyes were halfway closed and there was drool hanging from her chin. It looks awful but it's also funny because you can see her tiny teeth. My friend says delete it, I say it's a keeper. What do you guys do with ones that are technically bad but capture a real moment?

Keep it for sure. Those blurry funny shots are the ones that end up making me laugh years later. The drool and tiny teeth stuff is way more real than a posed perfect picture. My phone is full of wonky photos of my dogs because the funny ones always bring back the actual memory better. Delete the boring ones that don't tell a story. Yawning cat with drool is a total keeper in my book.

Haha yeah exactly! My buddy Dave has this photo of his dog mid-yawn with crazy eyes and a tongue half out, it looks totally stupid but it's his favorite picture of that dog ever. He said every time he sees it he remembers that exact lazy afternoon on the couch way better than any of the nice ones. Funny trash photos always win over the boring perfect ones.
