Time for a moody, night-time, still-life close up. I've got this old set of Encyclopaedia Britannica
dating from the early eighties. In this age of convenient instant internet access I shall
probably never use them for finding actual information again but they sit so prettily on the
bookcase that I cannot bring myself to part with them.

Nikon D80 ,Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC Macro
0.60s f/16.0 at 50.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Wonderful shot.
