Photo Essay: People on Cell phones

I took most of these photos with my camera on my stomach, so as not to alarm them and so I could get the most candid shot possible. The first three from the top are all how I composed the image. The last three were taken with my eye in the viewfinder. I took these images to show how "cell phone" dependent all of us are, and even though it is a technological breakthrough and we can talk to anyone in the world 24/7(for an extremely expensive price) I believe it shows that we've lost some of the sentimental value that we obtain with physical interaction with one another, further isolating us from the rest of the world. Since 80% of communication is nonverbal, it seems like we're missing out on quite a lot.
