Bookshop in Berkeley Photo

Photographer’s Note

Some time ago I started a TE theme about bookshops, and I must remember to post some pic there!

I like to visit bookshops, I like to look at books and also at people looking at books - because it is too hard for me to read a book written in English. Only books about photographers I can read in English! and I have a collection.

This bookshop I vissited also because my Lonely Planet guide wrote that it is very important: " Cody's 2454 Telegraph Avenue is not only one of the best bookshps of the Bay Area, but also a wanderful place for who loves books. There are often meetings with authors ...."

Another bookshop I loved in Bay Area was Ferlinghetti

Hi Livia.

Great shot, good tones.
Perfect POV of the book shop. People included is the sensible fact here.
Well composed and taken.
Wishes for a cool day, dear Livia.

Ciao Livia,
Anche quando sono all'estero le librerie sono sempre dei posti che mi incuriosiscono, anche se i libri sono scritti in ligue diverse dalla mia e non ci capisco niente ! Ottimi i colori e la vista dei clienti curiosi.
Ciao

Hello Livia,
Something as seldom as an image of a shop interior, for some reason churches seem to be more popular subjects, hehehe!
This is well done and equally interesting, the scenery is well framed and nicely exposed by help of present light!
Greetings,

Good composition with great colors and details. Lovely way to see the bookshop with people making a difficult decision about what to buy. Very well captured.
Well done. TFS.
