dictionary and pen f.jpg

It occurs to me that I rarely actually consult the Shorter Oxford anymore. The internet is just so
quick amd handy. I still find the volumes somehow reassuring on my bookshelf.

Ah, but there is an Oxford online, too. Still, books smell better and have a lovely texture. Perfection. VVV

Perfect focus and to the point. Nice strong diagonal. V

Very studious looking picture - great focus.

Very nice details, and a true story for us all, I am sure.

A sign of the times David. I bet future generations will have no need for such books.
Bud some dictionaries are full of info beyond words.
As a kid I used to like to look at my parent's dictionary pictures for flags of countries,
semaphore, languages, symbols etc.

Unusual but very effective. I read more than ever but very much miss the feel of my books. v

How long until the pen becomes extinct too?

Wonderful lighting and detail. Is it your mini desktop system? It seems to be perfectly managed. V
