Reading Room

Another photo from our day in Sydney. This is the reading room in Mitchell Wing of the State Library.

The door to this balcony was locked so this was the only way I could capture this scene from above the reading room.

] I was pleased at the results through glass and I love the light pouring in through ceiling windows.

@hrs Fancy that Helen, so interesting.

[Marnie]

Fabulous learning space Babs. I guess the balcony doors are locked to prevent morons doing moronic things. Shame for everyone else.

[haskar]

Lovely place. I like the atmosphere of the library.

[Kathy A]

Such an amazing room, I've never been in there

[Casablanca]

Just comparing yours to John's! They have real books out here. Very sad that they don't now. Beautiful building

[Judith Johnson]

So interesting to see the contrast between yours and John's photo!
