Lost in a book by bella_ss

Lost in a book

My entry for "5+2 for the love of selfies" challenge - lost in a book. Not quite sure if I conveyed what I wanted to but I had fun so that's the main thing, right?
Love it!

Nice one Sheralee. I was like that until 365, now I'm on here all the time and take way too long to finish a book. I've got one I've renewed from the library three times... Must finish it by the 23rd.
January 14th, 2015  
I like it! Nice shot!
January 14th, 2015  
Looks like my place on computer stuff not books.
January 14th, 2015  
Great b&w
January 14th, 2015  
really nice capture, she looks so fixated on what shes doing x awesome
January 14th, 2015  
Fun is definitely suppose to be a part of the process and it looks like you had some in setting this scene up. Great selfie, Sheralee.

@bill_fe I take way too long also, I read every night when I go to bed but sometimes only get one or two pages read.
January 14th, 2015  
lovely lighting. nicely done. fav.
January 14th, 2015  
Do believe you could easily say "she's lost in her book" - nicely set up.
January 14th, 2015  
Nice! Love how you did this, very creative!
January 14th, 2015  
Great photo
January 14th, 2015  
The way you set this up is PERFECT. I'm not sure what you were trying to convey, exactly, but there's a clear message here that you're lost in that book. The concentration on your face really made the shot, and I love the black and white. It's a Fav for me. An incredible addition to the tag!!
January 14th, 2015  
Love it, so creative!
January 14th, 2015  
Nicely done!
January 14th, 2015  
Love it, this is home from home. I love to be surrounded by books and most of our books are reference books or biographies so whenever I am researching anything this is how I look. also whenever I am looking for a new book to read (I buy them a batch at a time from our second hand book shop) I always have quite a few around me until I decide on which one to read next.
January 14th, 2015  
Love this! Fabulous!
January 14th, 2015  
Yes, it is. And I love this shot. I love curling up with a book. Well done!
January 14th, 2015  
Fantastic shot. It looks like you have a bit of light reading to do. :)
January 14th, 2015  
Great capture and caption.
January 14th, 2015  
Fun and clever scene!!! Well done and a great selfie, Sheralee. I love to read also, but have half a dozen books started and don't get finished with any of them ... not enough hours in the day!!!
January 14th, 2015  
Wonderful shot.....you really look lost in all the books that you have surrounded yourself with in your nook! Love these 5+2 challenges, but I never get around to doing anything with a selfie....
January 14th, 2015  
Wonderful! Looks like 'lost in MANY books'! I love it, fantastic selfie!
January 14th, 2015  
Nice image Sheralee, lots of books and not enough time eh. The wine glass is a nice touch :)
January 14th, 2015  
@hermann Thanks Sally, that was meant to convey that I was still sitting there from the night before... unfinished sandwich and wine...
January 14th, 2015  
Oh I can relate to this so well! Super capture...so well done. Love it!
January 14th, 2015  
Well done.
January 14th, 2015  
Certainly captures it :)
January 14th, 2015  
Wonderful lighting and composition
January 14th, 2015  
Excellent!
January 14th, 2015  
Love it - looks like a nice way to spend the day/s - I always dreamed of being locked in a library for a weekend… with lots of cups of tea and chocolate of course! This shot really suits b&w - nicely done.
January 14th, 2015  
wonderful. book worm.
January 14th, 2015  
Definitely convey's your love of books, a well set up and taken selfie. Reminds me of my daughter who always has about three or four books on the go at once. I find it hard enough to remember what's going on in one!
January 14th, 2015  
oh I like it, Excellent shot!
January 14th, 2015  
Nice one Sheralee.Next to TV a book is great sleeping medicine.
January 14th, 2015  
Terrific selfie, Sheralee. Love the composition, love the light, love how you are surrounded by all those books. Fav.
January 14th, 2015  
Love this Sheralee, and recognise it. It really shows you love to read!
January 14th, 2015  
Love this, it could mean a whole host of things, but it's captured very well.
Coffee cup and wine glass???? Think I'd have the other one in my hand ;-)
January 14th, 2015  
This is a winner! What a fun selfie and beautifully accomplished in black and white. Like Sharon (above) I am also wondering about the coffee or tea cup and wine glass. First the wine and then the coffee/tea? ;-) BTW, I did read Heaven is for Real last year (one of the books pictured)

Excellent!!!
January 14th, 2015  
Love it!
January 14th, 2015  
Nice composition and capture.
January 14th, 2015  
Great image with the b&w playing down the clutter that might otherwise confuse the story being told.
January 14th, 2015  
This is really cool, I love it. Beautiful black and white tones!

A really wonderful shot, love how you have set it up and it works really well in B&W. My bedtime reading at the mo is Photoshop for beginners...yawn!!
January 14th, 2015  
Your BW photo is perfect Sheralee. fav.
January 14th, 2015  
I think that you did a great job portraying...lost in your book! Nice in black and white!
January 14th, 2015  
@sharrystar @cimes1 I was trying to show that I had been reading all night... Hair is in curlers, unfinished sandwich and wine, now I'm onto a cup of tea as it's morning... All too much in a tiny photo. Also doesn't quite ring true, if that was my wine it would all be gone ;)
January 14th, 2015  
This is a great story and a selfie wrapped up in one. You look like someone I'd like to hang around ~ Oh, and your books! :-)
January 15th, 2015  
Looks like an ideal situation!
January 15th, 2015  
Love the piles! Also love that you have both the coffee and the wine to keep you going!
January 15th, 2015  
So creative and clever! Love it! Fav
January 15th, 2015  
Just noticed I wasn't following you?? I don't know how that happened... Righted now.
January 15th, 2015  
@pflaume Possibly from when I went MIA Lisa, I know I go through my list every now and then too... thanks :)
January 15th, 2015  
Lovely creative image. Very clever.
January 15th, 2015  
Brilliant selfie, such a great photo and I love all of the books
January 15th, 2015  
definitely lost in her book - or books ... great idea and photo to convey it.
January 15th, 2015  
Wonderful shot! You obviously put a lot of thought and effort into it - nicely done!
January 15th, 2015  
Sorry I miss this! I love your selfie with B&W! The image tells us a lot!
January 15th, 2015  
very fun selfie! like your comp!
January 15th, 2015  
Perfect!
January 15th, 2015  
Stay calm, read on!
January 16th, 2015  
Perfect. One of my favorite things to do, too. Did you read Heave is For Real? It's awesome!!
January 16th, 2015  
@amandal Not yet Amanda, it was a gift and I'm currently working my way through "the girl with the dragon tattoo" series. (I'm a slow reader as I keep falling asleep) It is next on my list.
January 16th, 2015  
Love this. Your lightning shot came up on my "suggestions" page...love my first (in a long time) glimpses into your project, and do believe I'll follow!
January 17th, 2015  
@squamloon Thanks so much... I never look at that page, maybe I should!
January 18th, 2015  
Excellent!
