New York: New York Public Library
Inspiration: Some of the rooms in this wonderful building are just spectacular. No wonder the New York Public Library snagged herself a role in the Sex and the City movie a year ago. She's gorgeous.

Jules - I totally agree with you about those shelves laden with books -- sooo much to know in one gorgeous room!

So stunning & grand! At the University I studied in, there was a grand library room similar to this (not as grand), which I dubbed the 'Indiana Jones room'...loved reading/studying in there, even though I was too afraid of swallowing/breathing too loudly, haha! :)

Wow--I really love everything about this photo---is photography a hobby, career, or both? You're so talented.

Hi Judy. Thank you!! Photography is what I do in my spare time . . . so, it's a hobby. But a hobby that I love, indulge and think about all of the time!

The composition is excellent, the uniformity and the repetition = beautiful. Nice nice :) Did your shutter sound alert anyone?

You should publish a book, but that would take it from hobby to work.... Thank you for letting us enjoy your world!!
