Are old photo albums dopamine reservoirs ?

What is nostalgia ?

And does it invoke a feeling of euphoria, more specifically when browsing old photo albums ?

Also do hard copies of photos better do this than soft copies ? :unsure:

On the subject of nostalgia and photography, it was common years ago to have family gatherings where old home movies would be shown, or perhaps slide shows. Old home movies of older children when they were toddlers, when shown at a family gathering, would inevitably induce feelings of nostalgia and even euphoria in the older generations present (the parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents). But the younger generation, viewing these images taken years earlier of themselves as awkward toddlers, might just feel a sense of irritation or of boredom.
