    our modern world, six inches from someone to talk to and we choose to communicate with someone else - cool shot though

    Thanks all. This is the first time I remember seeing cruise ship decks littered with crew glued to iphones and pads and I've been going down there for a few years.

    Very astute image, Michael. And the comments are right. There are people boasting about how many "friends" they have on facebook .... question is: how many of them will lend a hand when one moves? Or how many of them will assist you when you need help other than a phone call? Oops, I meant tweet, status update ....

    Nicely seen and taken. The photo really says something like the others have said.

    Yes, very strong image showing how independent/isolated most have become from actual human contact while communicating. Pretty sad really, and another reason I like living where I do, and in an old fashion family values type atmosphere.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!
