So many books! Don't you just hate to get rid of them? I always feel like they become part of me.
Nice fisheye work!

great, so great image..
Nooo, don't put them in order.. this way is a wonderful library.. dynamic.. with the seal of those who take them and read them..
not a library as an adorn or a furniture!

Cool fisheye...

wonderful shot and very fishy at the same time...
wished i could see all the book titles... i have tons
of books too, but mostly to weight down free standing book shelve in
case of an earthquake....then i have pile in viewing distance to read soon and one pile
to read immediately on top of my folders.....and if i ever
stop taking pictures, watching obama speech, going to work and being a householder - i might even read them to the end...

great topic, thank you, walter....
