Addiction

I was able to sneak up behind this woman and steal the shot because she was so engrossed in texting on her iPhone. I happened to stumble across the scene on my morning run. I was listening to music (and checking an occasional e-mail) on my own phone so fortunately I had my iPhone available to capture the scene. I was no more than a couple of feet behind her and I had to crouch down low to get the right angle. It took me a few seconds to frame the shot, straighten the horizon and so on. She was oblivious. After getting the shot, I looked up and only then noticed there was a big burly guy sitting in his truck with a clear view of what had just transpired. I jogged by him a little sheepishly, wondering if he was her husband or boyfriend and what he thought I was up to. As I trotted by his side window, I noticed he too was completely focused on his phone and had missed the whole thing…
