Jerwood Library, Trinity Hall, University of Cambridge. I've already shown a version of this as a part of the recent May Ball series, but this is a closer look and the treatment is different.

My second trip to the library in two days was necessary because I forgot to return a book. However, I took the opportunity to borrow a movie.
This was the late Lord Montagu's sitting room where he would often relax with his family at the end of the day. In later years, he also used the room as his office. He had a large record collection which included artists as varied as Ted Heath, Jimi Hendrix and Elisabeth Schwarzkopf. In the classical section, his favourite composers were Beethoven, Britten, Elgar, Mahler, Strauss and Wagner. It was the operas of the latter which he particularly enjoyed playing at full volume.
The book collection is mainly that of Henry James, Baron Montagu of Boughton, whose books spanned the 18th and 19th century, and the natural history collection of John Montagu, spanning the late Victorian era to the early 20th century. The library and its bookshelves were moved from the room below to make way for the Picture Gallery when Palace House was first opened to the public in 1952.
Beaulieu Palace House is a 13th-century house in Beaulieu, Hampshire, United Kingdom. Originally part of Beaulieu Abbey, the estate was bought in 1538 by Thomas Wriothesley, 1st Earl of Southampton, following the Dissolution of the Monasteries. It is still owned and occupied by the earl's descendants, the Barons Montagu of Beaulieu.
Although still home to the current Lord and Lady Montagu, parts of the house and gardens are open daily to the public. It is a member of the Treasure Houses of England consortium. The Palace House is open to the public as part of the visitor attraction known as "Beaulieu", which includes:
* Beaulieu Abbey
* National Motor Museum
* Beaulieu Palace House
* Secret Army Exhibition – an exhibit about the Special Operations Executive training at Beaulieu during World War II
* Gardens
* A monorail
* Rides

I loved the interior lighting with the cloud reflections all over the shot. This may be a bit too busy ...

The Library of Congress Thomas Jefferson Building (1897) is one of the lesser-known architectural treasures of Washington. Rich mosaic work adorns the ceilings and walls, including a large mosaic of Minerva seen between the columns. I did not know what to snap first but the intersecting lines and curves in this image intrigued me. Explore #416, July 17, 2008.
The central library in downtown Portland using a Zero Image 4x5 camera. The camera has about a 160 degree of coverage, giving the incredibly wide field of view. The tree branches are 30 feet up, straight overhead.
Another beautiful private library where one can relax with a good book.

A rather special wrought iron sign is on the side of the former Victoria Jubilee Institute and public baths in Tunstall, building of which was started in 1889. The uses of the building included the Free Library and this was marked by the sign provided by local worthy and brick & tile manufacturer John Nash Peake in 1901. Sadly the building is now entirely derelict and up for sale at a knock-down price. Renovation of the Grade II listed structure would cost millions.
I love these sidewalk lending libraries. Saw this one today and had Brent drive around the block to get this snap.
