How strange this is! Have never seen anything like this before! Will be interested to see what you do with that lense.

Was it the Butler who did it ??? :))
My granddaughter would want to cut them out & use them for stickers !!
Nicely done Walter...good choice of lens too

Cool shot, Walter. Lovely focus and shallow DoF...good idea to use only your primes for this Challenge - I might impose the same restrictions on myself :o)

LOL at Inga!!! Nice angle and dof, well done, great idea for Written challenge.

How cool! I like this. Very nice way of presenting the "written" shot!

I love this, and what a good idea to challenge yourself with your lens choice too.

At first glance I thought these were glyphs of new sex positions. Glad I put my glasses on and that my husband didn't see this. ;-)

oh wow.. that's very complex writing!

Wonderful, Walter! Very beautiful image of these colourful page. v

The image gives a tantalyzing glimpse into the page of glyphs and descriptors beneath each. The use of very shallow dof to illustrate a particular passage , showing that a full page of them is present for context, seems a very effective way of depicting the subject.
