The Classics

Not only do I read the classics I like to watch them too, especially the BBC series. Here are a few I own and since I don't watch TV these have filled many hours over the years.

Thank you for the compact camera suggestions...I have made a list and will do some testing.

A beautiful still life and fine collection. It would be tough to get this photo from a Kindle. :) V

That's a fine collection. Can't beat the BBC for good drama.

Cool, I am currently hooked on a new classic, Broadchurch... Still have not figured out who did it, but everyone tells me that I am in for a shock.

Hmm... Looks like a romantic collection, you shouldn´t see without a number of tissues. The image adds the right old time touch to it.

I like reading classics too. There's a reason they're classics. I love the image of your collection and the processing.

Ahhhhh, yes, a wonderful collection and photo. Why don't you watch tv, just curious. How could you miss Downton Abbey?

Always fun to compare book to movie.

We are being forced to watch ever lowering standards of TV. It is up to us to seek out what is inspiring and good for the soul.
Nicely displayed Laine.

I watch BBC and have some favorite, including Top Gear (cars of course) and Dr. Who (I love Sci Fi) and Doc Martin (I love English comedy)

I like the sepia and vignette to this collection!

Nice photo of the collection. (personally we find Elizabeth Gaskell heavy going!)

Congratulations on your excellent taste in not watching TV. I gave that up a number of years ago as well. There's only so long that you can have network executives metaphorically spit in your face with watermarks, network promos that cover half the screen, shows starting 20 minutes late, ad breaks that run forever, series being cancelled mid run, Kyle Sandilands, etc. They still seem to think that they have the captive audience that they had in the '60's, but today we have many other alternatives. It's much nicer to do your own programming.

You do have a great collection here...

I love these classics as well, good hours of watching! I hope you enjoy your search for a new compact camera, Laine. Fingers crossed you find your perfect camera...
