These photographs truly show how obsessed society is with technology and how difficult it is for people to be fully present in the moment. Not to mention, I find it horrifying how common texting and driving is nowadays.
Simply putting these moments into photos is powerful. What was meant to be a tool has become a distraction from experiencing life. Grandpa’s missing birthdays, fans missing concerts and games, and even drivers putting others at risk of serious injury or worse. Even with no words, this article has a great impact on the reader.
I love the representation of the conflict between life and technology. It astounds me that these pictures hold so much emotion and so effortlessly inspire discussion on technology’s takeover.
Your pictures highlight a relevant social issue. As a teen, I have been tempted by social media and FOMO. Your pictures demonstrate the addictive and distracting nature of phones.
