All of my digital photos are on iCloud. There are some old family black and white family photos that I would like to keep for the family. Would love to know what our forum members are doing to keep yesterday’s treasures for the future.
Altho I understand the digital/cloud/hard drive type 'storage' advantages..nothing quite as neat as adding the pix to below and sitting with loved ones around, to leaf thru 'hard copies' of old pictures..

For Christmas this year I gave wife and daughter-in-law photo albums, loaded with 100 or so 'family' photos..they both cried...

I store old photos in photo albums, and print photo books off digital images. Otherwise, it never gets looked at.
Hard drive just becomes a virtual shoebox where images get lost
