Making good use of the D40's 18-55 kit lens in the original British Library reading room, now at the centre of the Great Court, British Museum, London.

-Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as most interesting.

Some rich people buy fast cars, yachts, jet planes... I'd buy a library like that. And all the books to fill it... This picture really does your subject matter some justice.

Great color, framing and lines. Makes you want to look around at the details. Looks like it could be HDR enhanced, but subtle enough to not be able to tell if it is. Either way, nice job.
