"Young Reader"
This reminds me of childhood where many things seemed so magical, likewise when reading a book. Those nights where you could get so lost in a book and then drift off to sleep, waking up to it on your stomach.
This guy was so into Readers Digest he was oblivious to acknowledging that I was taking endless photos of him. What is it about Readers Digest?
This guys total focus in reading his copy of the Digest and his cool hat caught my attention. I walked around him at will clicking and he never once looked up. I wish all my street models were as compliant. Karen was embarrased at my brash photo taking.
About 12:30 pm, The Hall, Lancaster. Simon is reading The Times. I asked for permission to take the photo.

Lincoln's Inn Fields, 4 pm. I explained the project, and she said it was a good idea. She is reading (and, in another shot, annotating) 'Taming Your Outer Child' by Susan Anderson.

One for the 365 treasure hunt, number 24 Digital.
I have cameras that use 3 different memory cards. The reader on the right accepts a Compact Flash and SD card, as well as a micro card, which I don't use.
And, I've not toned this pic in PS ... I set a multi coloured changing light to the left and decided of all the colours I snapped, I liked the blue the best.
This ad is actually more attractive than the b&w ads that Ford Australia was mostly running in RD in the early Sixties.
Castle Hill, Lancaster, 3:15 pm on the warmest day so far this year. That's the Priory Church in the background.
I was higher up the hill and first saw him, on his back with his book in the air, silhouetted against the bright field. When I came over to ask permission, I saw she was reading too.
Tom is reading Robert Mcfarlane's Landmarks. Hayley is reading Roald Dahl's The Giraffe, the Pelly, and me; on the ground beside her she has Matilda, another Roald Dahl book, and a notebook.
I could see it was going to be hard to get a good shot, with the very bright sunlight and dark shade. But they were patient with my creeping around them. One reason I chose this shot is the way reflected light illuminates her face.
Thank you Hayley and Tom for being the 100th in my Readers project, and apologies for interrupting you. Other photos in my series of readers are here: www.flickr.com/photos/greg_myers/albums/72157652125931010.
Outside the National Theatre, about 6:40 pm, between the two parts of 'Angels in America'. He is reading Colm Toibin's 'The Testament of Mary'. I explained the project and asked his permission. The original idea was to get him with the statue of Olivier, but he just gets lost in a wider shot.

Reading on the terraces along the Grand Union Canal in front of Central St Martins College of Art. (A stranger; I asked his permission).
Surely most of the respected viewer and readers don't have much of an idea where on earth is that Galicia, formerly an independent Kingdom, formerly in Austria, formerly in Poland, formerly an independent state and presently in Ukraine, the western side. Traditionally Galicia was populated by Ukrainian, Polish and Jewish ethnic groups, going to various churches, schools and even hospitals but having integrated economy. As anywhere in Europe aristocrats built tremendously beautiful castles. I assume not all the pour people of those times were happy with their governors, but at least now we really can admire the best part of what they did. I regret to view all these architectural marvels in bad condition, but I thank God communists didn't get round to destroy everything during the dark times of Soviet era between World War II and 1991.

Tamper Cafe, Arundel Street, Sheffield. I asked permission. Martin is reading and, it seems, taking notes on an essay by Hanan Tarkan,
'On Being "The Other" In Post-Civil War Lebanon: Aid and the Politics of Art in Processes of Contemporary Cultural Production'. from the journal Ibraaz: Contemporary Visual Culture in North Africa and the Middle East. You can find it here: www.ibraaz.org/essays/63.
Martin asked whether I was only considering reading of paper, or reading more widely. I said books, magazines, and newspapers produce a posture and pose that is different from that people have for screens.
By the way, Tamper Sellers Wheel is an excellent place for coffee, and it is near Sheffield rail Station.
