A couple from Bristol's Central Library on College Green. I have only recently come to realise that this beautiful old fashioned reading room exists upstairs, after many years of visiting the duller ground floor. The spiral staircases up to the next level were, sadly, closed off, I would have loved to explore up there!

I lost count of the years I last stepped into a library.
This library is pretty cool with the modern architectural design.
Day 51
The Downtown Library is covered with an interesting metal skin that reflects. Can't believe I haven't shot this with the focus on the pattern before.
Street Libraries are popping up everywhere to share books with the community.

Ungewöhnlich präsentiert sich die Bibliothek des kleinen Städtchens Alcobaca mit den beiden Wächtern, die ein grosses eisernes Herz flankieren...
Was es bedeuten soll, habe ich mich schon gefragt.
Ist Bildung eher Herzensangelegenheit?
Macht Lesen kopflos? ;-)

Architekt Josef Hueber (1715/7–1787)
I visited a library known for its unique architecture in Gifu city, Japan. The wooden ceiling design and translucent canopies were very impressive. There are Starbucks and a convenience store downstairs. I can spend a whole day here.

居心地が良くて一日中過ごせそうな図書館でした。
Some weeks ago I had the chance to take some shots in the library of Stuttgart. It was the first time I visited the library and I had no big expectations. Of course the pictures you find online are really great but on the other hand side I doubted that I am able to get such shots because of several reasons:
a) I was not sure if my lense would be wide enough
b) I am aware what lightroom and photoshop can do
c) I never really used filters in such scenarios
d) and of course I know me as photographer (the most risky factor)
So no ideal conditions at all…I am not sure about the picture but I guess it’s not so bad ;-)...
But anyway I can just encourage everyone to visit the library because the architecture is just phenomenal. I was really amazed! So the trip to Stuttgart was more than worthwhile.
Here are some info about the library:

The eclipse on Thursday morning. I was going to go behind the Supreme Court to get the sun behind the Peace Tower, but there were cranes everywhere, so I had to change plans at the last minute. I got it coming up near the Library of Parliament from a nearby bridge viewpoint instead. You'd be surprised how fast it moves sideways as it rises, I had to keep moving after every few shots.

Really....is there anything better than a public library? Tonight, after supper, was library day! These are just a few of my "loans" :-)
