Books

"Make a photo of an interesting stack of books or magazines. Consider how you handle repeating lines in your composition."

Really wanted to focus on composition and lighting here. I already had a great choice of subject matter (we have about half a library worth of books in this house!)

 

In the end I had to burn out the background (plus some other adjustments), which was showing up because I had to use an ordinary lamp to light this shot. I swear, my photography wish list grows every day...

 

Anyway, I'm pleased with the shot, and "ooh... .ahhh" comments from members of the house can't mean it's too bad. =)
