this reminds me of the other night at dinner, a young couple sat at the table across from us, both were constantly texting and viewing on their device. They never said one word to each other, just sat, ate and texted. I think it's sad we are tethered like this.

The "smarter" and socially connected the phone, the more disconnected the owner. Captured the spirit off this time. In Holland we have Coffee shops as well only thing is they don't sell coffee

That's a more traditional way of disconnecting, if I take your meaning correctly.

Nicely framed and lit shot, Kerrowdown. A pity he hadn't just turned his head a little toward you, but I guess he might have been looking at some of those lassies who don't get up early, on his phone…

Aye but a least he would have been looking into the eyes of my “Sweetheart” (SMC Pentax-A* 85mm F1.4)

Yep, you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a convenience store. They are everywhere! For a real independent coffee shop(not Starbucks) you gotta really hunt, and they don't open early enough.
