Thank you Gayle,Cat,Rod and Alex for the comments. Great honest feedback (Love it)
Gayle - these books are not that old, late 70s, picked them up at a flea market.
As far cropping and lighting, I am going to rework this image.

Great way of interpret the topic. Too many artifacts for my taste, though. And, are you sure about the top crop?
Guest 02-Apr-2005 18:42
RK, this is very nice interpretation and the bw makes it more appealing. However I have to agree with Ron about blown highlights. Also see if you can include the top book (DEGA) completely in the picture, that might enhance the composition more IMO. -Cat

The lighting is too harsh for these old books I reckon. I won't mention the Blown Highlight:-)

How old are thse books? One of my interests is collecting antiquarian reference books....I have some from the 1800's and early 1900's. I love your photo cos I love the subject matter, and the lighting gives it added interest.
