nice idea
cindiann (66 months ago | reply)
Yes, Pete, you said something in my last shot about not looking like a librarian. I met a photographer in 2005 who was touring the country taking photos of librarians for a book titled "I am a librarian." Your comment reminded me of that and inspired me to take my own librarianish images. More to come. :)

Wonderful photo, Cindi.
You're beautiful! : )
(For the record, Order of The Phoenix is my Favorite. Love the angry Harry even if I did feel like slapping him most of the book.)

Celeste (65 months ago | reply)
hey, me too! otra bibliotecaria por aqui
are you my rik? (65 months ago | reply)
fantastic shot...very creative. i think you've started a little wave through flickr with this one.
quite a few there i know--that feels good. adams is my all time favorite author, probably because he was the first to really open the world of words (and space) to me in ways i had not previously known. the world lost a good man there, that's for sure.
and yeah, i have to admit: i tried to buy the harry potter 6 at midnight at our local wal-mart the day it was released, only to find out that we had the only wal-mart not open 24 hours. grr.
not so now. you can know where i'll be at 12:00 am when they release the last one. =]
Locator (65 months ago | reply)
nice one! I love many of the titles you are resting upon, and The Corrections remains one of my all time faves. :-)

I love how the image tells that you are a librarian maybe the image is enough you dont need the title. Any way just a humble opinion anyway love the shot;)
