When I snapped this shot, I was was focusing on life in a Paris garden. I loved the light and the fall leaves. When I downloaded the photograph, I realized that almost all of them were connected to their phones. Quel dommage.
C'est vrai, il y a une jolie lumière. Mais que faisaient donc les gens dans les squares parisiens avant Internet ? Peut-être regardaient-ils simplement autour d'eux.
It is the age of the hand-held toy, and how sad it is. I believe part of the problem is giving up the land line, which causes people to be constantly looking at their phone to see if any of their fans have called. :-)
It seems like you can't go anywhere without seeing it. Me? I have a stupid phone -- it only goes in the car when I travel or am out late by myself. And I love that.
