We carry around a mirror that’s a window. Do we think of it with the same wonder as someone elderly in the 1940s looked at those invariably black phones with a flexible covered wire attached to a clumsy hand set?
I have a funny vision in my head where the only time a person would've look at the phone like a mirror in being bewildered or puzzled at whatever the person on the other side was saying--with a face showing disbelief or disgust 😠
Thank you so Monica! I don't recall exactly but figure the floating Duckie was getting a great deal of notice. I just happen to option a moment in between 😂
I have to remind myself that everything we as humans interact with becomes part of the human condition. Somethings as widely distributed as smart phones have a big impact on societies. A study for future generations maybe...
Thank you Juliette. As you know, there's no way around it when photographing outdoors--well maybe in an isolated spot in a national park or wilderness area 🤨
It began with those personal digital assistants/digital phone books/pagers of the 1980s-1990s. Combined those with cell phones and voila! The smart phone. I figure this too, will morph into something that replaces it. These images will represent this time in history. It's just so much of it. It's made Apple the most valuable company in the world. Go figure.

I can’t imagine no one taking a second look at the guy in the black hat with the inner tube. 😂
Everyone is so immersed that they don’t even notice you taking a picture. The expressions tell a story too.
Well done!

I have hundreds of shots of people with their mobiles. I like the way you presented yours!
