book

This is an exception, as it is from my archive.
Had to search for it for quite a while,
but I was sure, I made this shot during my Ireland visit in 2007.

If people stand in line, paying money, just to have a look at a book,
it must be a very special one.
I´m sure, some of you know a lot more about this than me.
For the others, here you can find all about:

Very fine capture and tones, excellent photo.

You'd think it'd be out in paperback by now ;-))

Great image - reminds me I must go back and see it again some time.
