I can't see even a tinge of anxiousness at all

Maybe...u want to try to tilt the phone a little. And maybe, a title of 'waiting in vain' would be more suitable?
Just my opinion.

erm... sorry about my curt comments earlier on. Just feel that a good picture will convey its msg to a viewer straight away.

Actually the message of the picture struck me the moment I saw it....I have to say I like it
Nice use of the susnset and the empty space to create the mood.

i find that the picture is cropped too tightly
and i would prefer a tightly cropped picture of a phone in B&W taken at the same level as the phone with a shallow DOF for the same tittle as above
just IMO

Tilting the phone? Hmmm, may I know why you would want to do that? As in, why would you prefer it to be that way? In any case, it's quite impossible to do that cos the phone is stuck fast onto the wall.
Actually, contrary to what most people might be thinking, this is not a case of a guy waiting for a girl's call in a romantic sense. I took this photo with the intention of potraying a runaway family member who hasn't called back.
Maybe I should have been clearer in my first post.
i mean shooting another phone in another set up eg. the phone placed on a table and use the far background to get a nice bokehOriginally posted by elutris
I don't know about that... I took this at f2.0 and 1/20 (handheld). The phone is pretty much stuck onto the wall so I am not sure how much DOF we can get. Unless we do a marco shot of the phone...
