books, and the places they reside...

I spend a lot of time with books, either in electronic form or their original printed form....

I spend a lot of time in bookstores and libraries, too...

so, consequently, I shoot books and where they live - I'd like to see your shots, too...

show me your shots of books, your shots of bookstore, of libraries, maybe even of your own bookshelves....

Now you've done it.







When I don't want to sit at home...




I volunteer with the local Friends of the Library. We take in donations of used books, clean them up and resell the books and the money is used to help the library budget.

One of my writing friends. This was shot for the regional newspaper without any advance warning at all after he'd won a short story competition. I had to use my ancient *ist DL2 and Takumar 28mm/3.5, which was all I happened to have with me, and with the tiny dim viewfinder I was effectively shooting blind in the low light of our local subscription library -- so I managed not to notice that one of his arms was hidden under the table. But the paper ran it anyway, and since the photo editor there is a bit of an ogre I consider it a win.
