Day 14 - Visual Representation of a Reading List

Chelly's suggestion, which is wonderful so far! (thank you amalia, also)

Best name ever..

I still need to finish this.

Fantastic surreal story. Also read "At Swim Two Birds". Brilliant stuff.

I went to a school called Clongowes Woods College, where Joyce went to school. It's mentioned in this book.

Gerard Manley Hopkins taught in Clongowes Wood College, although that was a bit before my time...

one of my all time fave writers for ever! Did you love it?

yes! :D

Adorable...

This remember my situation...but i'm older than you and books are...too much!!! Very nice

Kafka <3!!

Day 14 - Visual Representation of a Reading List by margolove.

Books from around the house that I have been meaning to read and/or finish. There are... a lot.

I never got this quite the way I wanted, but this one's close.

Extremely loud is not as good as Everuthing is illuminated, yet is very touching.

** This was voted a maybe from Hit, Miss, Maybe, WHY? **
its cute, nice, pleasant but the face is not too sharp...just a bit blurry.
Posted 28 months ago. ( permalink )

margolove says:

thank you! I was also disappointed that the face wasn't totally in focus; unfortunately this ended up being the best.

The idea is very good. Just needs to be a little sharper on the face. Also, the wall is a little bit too bright.

heheheh, nice shot, although I wouldn't bother with Ayn Rand. Tom Robbins is probably much more useful :)

** This was voted a Hit from Hit, Miss, Maybe, WHY? **

Great composition and expression. Have yopu considered running a sharpening filter on the face? It might improve the blur a little.

margolove says:

I'll give it a try, thanks, peek101!

ChuckTofu - I'm really enjoying the Tom Robbins book (Still Life With Woodpecker) so far. I read about half of Atlas Shrugged and just kinda never finished, which hasn't bothered me too much so far.

And everyone else (courtney, hanna, metamiche), too!

aaiiiiighhhh!!!!!!!!!

this is amazing. On two billion levels.
Do you feel that? It's my extreme waves of jealousy bombarding your "awesome photographer" shield. Look out!

Adrian Zorzano says:

so fine the photo.
you looks like Amelie( :

capsizing says:

Awesome shot! The stack of books looks to be taller than you are, and you look like you're sinking next to the books.
Posted 28 months ago. ( permalink )

Tobz8 says:

Heh, it looks like your about to eat that book. Watch out for ink poisoning.

This is how I want my reading list to look too, not just a long list on paper. If I had the money I would buy them and do this. Then of course my room would be to full to fit me in it. But I'd have lots of books, so no real downside really.

margolove says:

my bookshelf is overflowing! Eeeek. I need to get rid of some stuff.

Luckily, my mother is a librarian so there's a neverending supply of free books :)

Talking about the picture, well, I liked the composition, the black & white is just fine.
