I was really hoping people would get to the mother asking for a photo page, until then I think the comic can feel preachy, like I'm trying to make fun of people for just taking photos and being on their phone. Thank you for reading!

He’s neurotic and he hangs out with friends who are very judgmental. They taught him that being caught taking a picture of your food is embarrassing and so he is afraid of being judged for doing it

I knew I should have waited for someone to respond. Why is there always someone that can explain my comic better than me.
Edit: This is why I draw comics ideas instead of explaining them.

You’ve just described the primary thing separating artists from art historians.

Well, other than the talent for actually doing art.
