Pascal,

I don't get the title.

I looked at the rest of the photo catagories he has up on his site, and it seems to confirm the thought I had when I saw the subjects in this shot. The photographer is possibly oriental and the combination of style of thinking and not perfect command of english makes the title seem odd. I think the title is commenting on how each person's attention is on something else. No attention, or care, is given to others.

That is my take.

There are 6 people in the photo and no one is taking care about the 5 others.

Such a strong and contemporary narrative in this one, and I love the composition.

My one complaint is the black and white treatment. I suggest giving it another go. It could use a little more pop.

I actually really like this capture; one of the things that I am always observing about the tourists who visit Ketchikan is how they're always paying attention to their devices during most of the time they're on vacation. I'm not a fan of the black and white processing though like mentioned above as well, and agree that it could be done much butter.

Once again Pascal, a fine moment captured by your skilled eye.

I love photos of groups of people where everyone is completely on his/her own, totally ignoring others. It is always striking.

This reminds me of a photo I took in New Orleans in the French Market. Im right in front of all these people and not a single person looked at the camera.
