Also many Buddhists do not like to have their photos taken.
In the second instance, I heard that some believe their 'spirit' will
be trapped.
There are many religious beliefs that have some associated validity,
such as certain foods are to be avoided, and these two example seems
to be quite universal, although there were no ways of recording images
prior to photography.
I wonder what effect watching people on TV who were older than you
when you first saw them, are now much younger when you see
recordings.
I have a feeling that their may be some significant psychological
impact.
Any thoughts?

Yes. It fucks us up. But we know how to grin and bear it and take prozac
when things, seemingly inexplicably, go tits up for us thanks to the
army of geeks who bring us unnatural toys.

No one wants to look at a passed person. You've passed them, they're
behind you, you want to get on to your destination.
