Call Waiting...or maybe the opposite dilemma -- Have you ever waited for a call? This photograph captures the dating delemma in the context of modern technology. The unknown subject arrived home after work, eagerly deserving all that the evening will hold. She admires the pink rose she received last evening from the anticipated caller. She dresses to the nines -- down to the pearl jewelry she bought for herself with this year's bonus check. She pours herslef a Manhattan cocktail while she waits and unwinds from a hard day at work. Time seems to stand still forever, but during that time, she reflects on who she is, and she likes what she feels. She is relaxed and enjoying her own company. It is the caller's loss. Tomorrow will bring another night. She is free to explore the possibilities dressed to the nines -- and equipped with her cell phone, she can call whomever she likes to meet her or not. The forgotten caller has dilemmas of his own. He really liked her, but he is young, and he shies away from commitment. The speed to solve the dilemma is facilitated through modern technology, but the solution, as always, lies totally from within one's self and is the truly formidable foe to this time-old problem.
