Brilliant picture. We used to have lots of books, then someone I work with suggested that if you have already read a paperback and lend it to someone, then you should make it known that you don't expect it back, a kind of pass it on thing. But a word of warning I have now bought "touching the void" twice and still haven't got a copy of my own.

Dewy would be proud. ;o)

And I thought I had a lot of books, Doug!! A mere 700-800 at the last count! Nice perspective on this one. Best regards, Chris

Have to agree with Terry here...and a great 'home' shot...though living room? Sounds more like a library!

Frank Brault		02-Mar-2009 22:45
I love books too. It looks like a fine library indeed.

Chris Thorpe		02-Mar-2009 21:57
Nice perspective, the colors and lines draw my eye through the entire image.

What a great photo! Looks like my house. We have so many thousands of books they're piled up on the floor, on tables.... I think this is a warm and cosy photo!!

Fay Stout		02-Mar-2009 20:56
There is always something warm and comforting about shelves full of books...

Jola Dziubinska		02-Mar-2009 19:18
Lots and lots to read! Good angle for this presentation.

From one book lover to another - this is an excellent photo. So many books...so little time! V

I love books, too.

Stewart Mitchell		01-Mar-2009 22:30
Ahhh....I see that you are an Ian Banks fan too!! And very organised too....all displayed in alphabetical order...great stuff ;-)

Nice angle and composition! Reminds me that there are millions of books to be read .... there's never enough time to do everything. Well done.

LOL at Walter - I too am twisting me neck trying to see what you've got there. I always look a people's book shelves when I got visiting. Good perspective and very neat shelves.

Fascinating look at your reading. They say that books tell a lot about a person. Too bad the titles are so difficult to read.

endre novak		01-Mar-2009 15:15
looks a nice collection,- perfect pov for this, Doug.

Maaike Huizer		01-Mar-2009 15:03
Excellent angle and great collection

Kerry Tingley		01-Mar-2009 14:59
Great perspective! I love books too.

globalgadabout		01-Mar-2009 14:48
wonderful perspective on this marvellous collection...although it's a neck-twister trying to read the titles...couldn't find the Spike Milligan section though...trust you have sturdy supports under the living room floor...V

Great perspective in the connoissance... and on the picture !

Ann...		01-Mar-2009 13:29
Oh! you have some old Penguins I see... :)

So many books! Don't you just love to read? I'm not a TV person and would rather read to relax! Thanks for the entry!
