I do like this book...It can be cold and rainy for a long time, the book is long enough! Have a nice week end, Oya.

How did you make the picture with a dreamy effect? With the beautiful bookmark, the pic looks very inviting!

Have a nice weekend and enjoy your book!

It's cold here too, and beginning to snow a little. There's nothing like a good book, and a hot cup of coffee on an evening like this!

Very nice treatment of this photo of your book.

Very nice treatment of your picture. You have picked a very long book to snuggle with. It should keep you company all weekend long.

Thanks to you all.
Dsole, me staying at home at Saturday night,I must be getting old:)
Fay, dreamy effect, thanks to Picasa.
The bookmark is from Grand Bazaar, kind of Turkish art work.

Really, lovely bookmark. I love collecting bookmarks, though I don't have any as lovely as this one. I guess when you love reading, its second nature to look for nice bookmarks too. Njoy reading.

tu as raison quand il pleut, rien de mieux qu'un bon livre. j'aime beaucoup l'effet que tu as donné sur cette photo. Bon dimanche


you are right when it rains, nothing better than a good book. I like much the effect that you gave on this photograph. Good Sunday

Just a lovely way to spend a weekend but the Cafe is so busy that I don't have these kinds of weekends much anymore but I love photography so I really don't mind.

I really like the treatment of your photo. I think I have that software on my computer so must have a look.

By the way, that photo on my blog of the winter scene in Elora Gorge is winter but the oak trees don't seem to lose their leaves here till the new buds break and push the old leaves off in spring. Quite different to me.

I like your photograph and the idea of spending time reading. Reading puts me to sleep. Even when I am wide awake a good book seems to make me go to sleep. Anyway. I like your photos. I hope you have a nice weekend.

Books - my passion - well apart from dogs and trying to take photos. That's a beautiful photograph. I love what you've done with the effect.

Thanks for the answer, Oya. I have Picasa but never thought of playing with it that way. Now I have a lot of fun things to do with my pix!

Im going to have to pick me up a good book like that to read - I think you will also enjoy Daniel Boorsteins The Creator or The Discoverers - I dont know, maybe not, but that book sounds interesting.
