9th August 2013 Word of the Day

Topic of the Day - Book (Book Lovers Day)

This is my favourite and most used book - I love it!! My Dictionary. I have had this book for years and I probably use it at least once a day - my spelling is a bit dodgy and I like to check. I know I could use the automated spell checks and dictionaries online but I like to rummage through the book and find my word. Years ago at work we used to have "word of the day" and each day I would pick a word out from the dictionary and see who on my section knew the meaning. We had great fun with this!!
Great comp and processing!

Like the contrast between dictionary and keyboard here, I.e. old a new as nowadays I best most people use google instead do a book

Pam, this is such a good photo. I love the composition and the words attached AND the processing. This makes me so nostalgic for a simpler time. I wrestle daily with what I feel I have lost with the onset of really high tech back in the early nineties. This photo says it all, so it's a fav for me on many levels. My soul thanks you for your post today! Fav.

Nice processing. Really suits the subject. Good for you using proper books and not auto correct!

Fabulous composition.

I have to rely on auto correct as I can't spell well enough to look the word up in the first place!

Great composition on this. Too bad newer generations will miss doing this. I don't believe we having any actual dictionaries in the house anymore.

Love this photo, Pam. The dictionary is one of my favorite books too. I have a collection of them, mostly old ones, some huge ones, some small ones. I always keep a dictionary in the bathroom "library". My kids learned so many words in that library.
