Boy could not move away from the iPad.

fairly typical!

Nice capture and lighting.

[Graeme Stevens]

Great shot, iPads are the best for lighting!

[Robyn]

Nice shot and a good way to keep the subject still. I'm still waiting to get one of my teens with the iPad

[Jenn Marie]

I think I have seen that look on my kids before...usually with something electronic! haha...great capture and beautiful in B&W

@brigette @adayinmallacoota @graemestevens @flyrobin @cherryred thank you all for taking a look and commenting.

[Andy Mcculloch]

Great use of the light from the ipad.

[Rachel]

[livvy]

[Spanner]

@andy3168 @roseolivia Thank you both very much.

@livvy Thank you. Gormless is his default expression.

i think it is a sickness! my two older grandsons have the same look when they're on their iPads; they hear nothing and see nothing but the screen! great use of light, must try it one day. i'm on low-key mode this week.

@summerfield It is frightening how engaged children become with technology especially when the use is mindless. This light source could be a good idea for a low key shot.

[Angela Tavan]

great shot and lighting. He looks like he's in a trance! Those ipads have a fairly hypnotic effect on kids, don't they? Fav for me!

[Spanner]

@angelat Thanks Angela - I have to admit they are quite addictive. They have replaced the newspaper for me.

[Annie D]

it is a beautiful image but the mindlessness of children on these devices disturbs me - there are so many intelligent uses and they are just left by the wayside

[Call me Joe]

You captured the mood perfectly !!
