24 Bebook reader

Melbourne, Australia

It is a clean read, no thumb folded pages or loose ones,
no struggle with the gutter or the smell of ink on paper.
It would be a total new read


other sizes: small medium large original auto

But no marginalia, the turning of pages, the flipping back to the index, the smell of the ink, the feel of the paper, the look of the cover and the rest of the experiences a bibliophile savors so much.

Well seen Mieke - this is a great candid. I like my books real though - I like the smell, and thumbed pages and the weight...at least you know you've got something tangible in your hand!! Great shot all the same!!

Great candid! Those things really seem to be catching on!

Something tells me he's going to get a bad back like that... :)

Mooie straatscene; goed gezien en vastgelegd

Lovely candid Mieke, but how can he read that in the strong sunshine??
Guest 24-Jan-2010 12:47
I hate those things in the sunshine, I like them best, when dark, near a fire.

Wonderful, just what I like to do to relax.
Well captured.

A superb shot Mieke! Did he even know you were there?
Barbara Heide24-Jan-2010 08:53
a lovely shot, excellent composition!
Sheila24-Jan-2010 08:42
It must be easy to read in the sun too, which is surprising.
Ann...24-Jan-2010 07:40
Great candid. He is certainly engrossed!

Great harmony. Love to sit there too! Maybe with the new Apple tablet? Nice find Mieke!

Looks like he's enjoying the sunshine as well as the electronic reader, I'm more of a traditionalist when it comes to books....very nice candid image..well seen. - Racine

Great street candid!

I like a good book and like the real thing. I never lose my place and I find it actually easier to read. Love the image and his complete focus on what he is reading. Bet he never even looked up to see you take this pic. Excellent candid!
Fay Stout24-Jan-2010 02:31
Excellent shot. He looks very engrossed. I still like the feel of a real book!
Nancy Good24-Jan-2010 02:23
I like this shot. Though I think I would have a hard time reading off one of these things in such bright sunshine.
