Description
A bookshelf full of old legends, full of words and wisdom.I love that silvern thing there, with the green orb of glass, which I bought in some Antiques-shop years ago.
It's a bookmark. Normally an Ex Libris is some kind of paper or label with the name of the owner, pasted on the first page of a book, but it's engraved there on a silvern coin-thing.
And yeah, it's my bookshelf. ^^

Nice texture you caught, and the different hues of the books work well. A great shot.

Where did you get such lovely old volumes?

Ikonion In reply to FliegenLicht [2010-08-06 16:27:52 +0000 UTC]
Well... partly by looking for them on flea markets ...partly by inheritage... A got a few beautiful ones through special exchange-books-cupboards in the City of Bonn in Germany... but you have to slepp on the Spot to get them... and then you leave another book there...perhaps a newer one, but noetheless worth reading. Nice Concept...not always really working out though

What a wonderful place you must have that books such as this can live in it.

Ikonion In reply to coffeenoir [2010-02-22 14:18:44 +0000 UTC]
Well, actually...
it's not that beauty of a place^^... but I build up a corner, touching my bookworm-oldstuffloving-soul every time my eyes fall upon it.

coffeenoir In reply to Ikonion [2010-02-22 15:50:23 +0000 UTC]
Then it must hold beauty. A room without a book is like a body without a soul.

Heh^^... I can imagine that.
...and I can truly understand you.
So I guess you understand, why I would rather not give them away so easily.
