Ceiling of the Library of Celcus in Ephesus Ancient City.
Visited the Central Library and this is from the front balcony. The sun was shinning. People were taking the opportunity to be in the warmth of the sun's rays.
Yesterday my sister and I visited our cousin in West Vancouver. He has Alzheimer's disease and lives in the Maison Senior Living - Memory Care. The place was beautiful and he seemed genuinely happy there.
May I suggest enlarging the picture to see the activities of people using the library area.

Ephesus, Turkey (Wednesday 22 October 2014)
This is the external facade of the Perth City Library including the extensive remediation building works. But it is good the library is still operating, with a dedicated children's floor that is accessible only to parents and their kids. I quite often pop into a library when travelling, just to see what is different and interesting.

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.

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? ;-)

The ceiling of the library of the Technical University of Berlin. I guess I got little too carried away with the postprocessing since the atmosphere here is little dark and jail like

Wasn't my original idea, but it turned out much better than the way my original idea was shooting.
Shot in the last 5 minutes before we left work.

I love it when I'm out shooting some other things and I happen upon one of these small neighborhood libraries.

This Library is in the town of Ulysses, NY. and in the Village of Trumansburg and in Tompkins Country. I think I need to go to the Library and look that up! Philomathic refers to the love of study and learning.

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:

I have lived in Adelaide since 1991 and this was my first visit to this beautiful space.
The Mortlock Wing, formerly known as the Jervois Wing, was opened on 18 December 1884 as a Public Library, Museum and Art Gallery for the colony. It opened with 23,000 books and a staff of three. A grand plan was envisioned for the cultural precinct with this being the first of three buildings planned.
In honour of a substantial bequest from John Andrew Tennant Mortlock, the Libraries Board of South Australia (LBSA) resolved that a percentage of the South Australiana Collections would be housed in the wing and named the Mortlock Library of South Australiana. The Mortlock Library was opened in 1986.
