Many different scenarios can be concocted from this photo ....
4:10 p.m. White Cross pub, Lancaster Canal. Deniz is reading 'Insanlarimiz', a Turkish translation of a book by Maxim Gorky. She translated the title as 'Our People'. She said the last book she read was in English, and she wanted to read something in Turkish. We talked about where it is that people read outside, particularly in this cold month of the year.
Apologies for interrupting your reading. Other photos in my series of readers are here: www.flickr.com/photos/greg_myers/albums/72157652125931010.
9:10 a.m. Scott is reading The Lord of the Rings. He said he was in his third year of university, and thought it was a book he should read before he left. He is sitting where he would have the view of Lancaster Castle shown in the other photo.
Thank you for letting me take your picture, and apologies for interrupting your reading. For more readers, see www.flickr.com/photos/greg_myers/albums/72157652125931010.
Reader Rock Garden Historic Park is one of the city's most unique cultural landscapes. During the turn of the century, it was common for horticulturists to collect alpine plants on their travels and create gardens as living artifacts of their journeys. Reader actively engaged in this practice and for thirty years the Garden trialed over 4000 different plant species, making it one of the few significant gardens in western Canada. Reader used the Garden as a showplace to educate people about the gardening potential of the prairie/foothills region of Alberta, particularly Calgary.
Reader continued collecting and experimenting with plant material until his death in 1943. One year later the Garden was named in his honour and was opened to the public as a City park.

5:00 pm, County South. Chris Hart has an office just around the corner, but here he has commandeered one of the lounges in the mixing bay to settle into a dissertation.
Thank you, Chris, for participating in my Readers project, and apologies for breaking your concentration. Other photos in my series of readers are here: www.flickr.com/photos/greg_myers/albums/72157652125931010.
Is there such a thing as environment more inspiring for reading than others? If so the old city of Krakow might be one, the textures of all the stone buildings are oozing with history. This one is taken at the small square Maly Rynek ("Little Market") that is "hidden" just behind the main city square.
I've had a hard time choosing the best version for this one, I decided to go for the "classic" monochrome even if the desaturated color version is the one I like the most at them moment. I save both and perhaps I change it around later?
Raghnailt started reading again she used to do it a lot but gave it up when she felt down, Eddie convinced her to pick it up again. She's been reading a lot of Shakespeare <3
btw look at her shoes! look at her shoes!!! it's her saddle shoes!!! <3 <3 <3
7:55 am, Pumpkin Cafe, Platform 2, Preston Station. I asked permission. The woman on the left is reading Christopher Isherwood's stories, 'Goodbye to Berlin' (the source for the play 'I am a camera' and the musical 'Cabaret'). The woman on the right is studying a textbook of commercial law of insurance.
Thank you both for letting me interrupt you. Other photos in my series of readers are here: www.flickr.com/photos/greg_myers/albums/72157652125931010.
