I took this photo at the main branch of the New York Public Library while I was on my business trip. This old library is full of old-fashioned things. An unabridged dictionary on a wooden stand with a reading lamp is one of them. (Pay no attention to the "new-fashioned" light bulbs in the reading lamp. :) )

That is a gorgeous photo! I would LOVE to visit that library.

Beautiful shot too! Nice take:)
Great shot you have here. Happy weekend!
*smiles*....what light bulb? I don't see any. LOL
This is a great themed photo for the week....love the lighting...no really. I think it's awesome and very quaint. So warm and making the photo even more beautiful
Thanks for the visit.
Most excellent photo of the thin dead wood with ink on it. :)
Oh! That is a fabulous shot and choice for today :) Love it....just like in the movies....
Wonderful!
Nice work, Rebecca,
Perfect lighting, nice angle, great view of the subject. Then again, I'm biased because I've always been an avid reader.
Thanks for the visit and the lovely comment on my pictures of the Victoria Memorial.
Cheers

great photo, too bad todays kids could not use it.
that is a really nice and huge library!
thanks for visiting my blog.
Nice of the library to have a dictionary for the public to use. Maybe I should suggest that to my local library as well :)
The NY Public library is great, it's so stately and dignified both inside and outside. Love it!
I will never mention anything about my local library.
As for yours.... 'whoa! that must be a great old library (='
Look like our local library -although ours may be just limited in floor space compare to NY's.

That's a very good photo, and great for the theme. How lovely to have the dictionary out like that.
That was a good idea. We have old books rubbing shoulders with DVDs.
Thanks for the comment.
