Oblivious

Young people’s paraphernalia certainly looks like a safety hazard when crossing streets or using stairs… Smoke in the eyes, music blasting in the headset, and attention focused on the cellphone, exchanging text messages. Completely oblivious to their surroundings… are they getting disconnected from the world around them?

This shot was made in response to our good friend Shawn who challenged us to take a sneaky pic of a person(s) without their knowledge , adding that it should be made from a low angle.

I was really sneaky for this one because the stairway was just beside the lobby of a building. I went inside and found that I had this great POV thru the side window, and no one could see me shooting to my heart’s content! The ambiant light was low though, so it’s a bit grainy.
