13 The reader

The Antarctic wind was blowing over the water
In the lee of the dam he was reading his book...
I added this other picture to see the reader more in the context of the environment in which he was reading

Wonderful candid Mieke! He must be really concentrated in his reading!!!.

It must be a very good book, for him to endure the hard rocks and the cold wind!!! Wonderful find for us!

He seems to be very enthralled in his reading. A great capture. Didn't even know you were there. Excellent!

Great candid capture of this man totally absorbed by his book.

love everything here...the subject, the angle, the light, the composition... V

Interesting place to read a book! He is probably as happy as can be down there by himself. But like lanie, I'd have troubles concentrating on the book because I'd be distracted by all the scenery!

I'm glad to see he has his shoes tied on, maybe he was out of the wind down there?
Maaike Huizer13-Sep-2010 08:56
A super candid. He seems so relaxed.

I would find it hard to concentrate on the words with the surrounding scenery!

Wow..love the artic wind to have, here the wind comes from the Nordsea:) Great find and study! v.

A bit chilly but I suspect he was so engrossed in his book he did not notice.

Lovely candid, and a great place to sit and read.

It doesn't look like the most comfortable seat, but it must be peaceful there by the water.
