How often do we stand still on the street, surrounded by the urban environment, looking at a phone?

This is the trailer for a new street photography documentary series. I’ve only watched this trailer, but it looks very promising.
Found in the ever excellent “Photos, mostly” newsletter.
They’re just married and getting their wedding photos taken. Outside the Cathedral in Malaga.

In contrast to the photo yesterday of the same bench in 2015 when a mural appeared on the wall, this photo from July 2019 features a blank wall.
An elderly man, with his walker sits on the same bench. I hope he made it through the COVID pandemic.

I wonder if this man checking his phone noticed the mural behind him in Bishop Lucey Park. In this fragment of the mural you can see the old Roches Stores building, Mangan’s Clock and Shandon Bells.
You won’t see that mural there now. This is a snapshot of it from 2015.

At the height (one of them, anyway) of the COVID19 pandemic in July 2020, someone takes a break on the street. He still wears his mask, despite being outside and nowhere near anyone.
Numbers of COVID19 infections are rising again, unfortunately. Schools are back after the summer. It’s so depressing.
