Nice composition and lighting. Would like to see a bit more contrast. The phone works for anachronism but really it's not a very interesting addition to the photograph. Seems thrown in. This would have made more sense for me if one of the shelves was maybe stocked with a modern day grocery item, something obscenely out of place (like cheese wiz or lunchables or something).
Good idea, and technically this is a very well done photo. However, I wish that the phone had been more prominent somehow. Had to search for a second before I caught it. Perhaps a couple of retail boxes of phones or other electronics would have made the point more clearly and obviously. - 6
