Wasting Time In the Library waiting for the rain to stop, saw this bible laying there, slipped my glasses on the book and took this quick. I liked the soft back lighting.

Thank you Ken, coming from you that is an great honor. I was going to try reproduce it in the studio on a real old Bible . Never got around to it as my Canon Rebel XT did a hari Kari on me and now its all film for a bit, but may try it with the Sinar, Theresa just went to bed so She has not seen the post or the original you can bet however that She will see it in the morning and I shall gloat a little or maybe even a lot.

Good night old chap.

Your glasses need adjusting, the nose lug is twisted.

That's because I have a bent nose. Actually, they are $6 flea Market glasses because I stick them in my trouser pockets and end up sitting on them.

Hi Ian, I am just entering the world of 'glasses' not sure I'm going to cope any better than you do, nice photo by the way.

I guess if you can afford Titanium frames they are great. I lost three expensive pairs, one in a fire and two only the people who found the know. I am blind in one eye and prescription glasses are not half price. Anyway if I lose these its no big deal but am sure using cheapy glasses is bad for you but I use only for reading so....

Ian

Have a great day in Aussie and keep sending the Foster's.

Great picture (and message). You and Theresa will enjoy Northwest Arkansas. Visit Shephard of the Ozarks ... another great place for pictures.

The twisted nose lug has meaning. Even if it was unintended.
Looks like most of my Walmart reading glasses nose lugs.

Excellent Ian!

Thanks a lot, I put a spindly tripod up and set manual @ 1.5 secs at f22

Will try to do a re shoot but want to find a real old bible, the big version and a pair of old mans specs!

Thanks for your interest

Ian
