I am not talking about anything important google is going to hide but if you are searching images from back April 2008, google will say nothing found. Yes it is true. So now If you try to filter images in google image search from April 2008 or prior to that then you will get nothing but a error message.

I'll pass it on, but my guess is because image dates are hard. Images from that time period probably don't have embedded meta data with the dates and are on pages published since the web began, which means assumed dates of 1993 onward.
