 Actually I only own one of these.

The more I look at this photograph, the more I wonder..."what the hell was I thinking?"
The comments I recieved were well deserved as was the score. It was a bit of a wake up call, not rely on quantity rather than quality.

A truely "cringe worthy" entry

Although this meets the challenge, I don't find it to be an interesting photograph. I sure wish I owned all those books, though!

I had the same idea :)
And the same problem - it was difficult to show a large number of books (more narrow angle could help). I wish the books weren¹t about digital phography. 6.

Fits the theme, but the photo is pretty boring. Seems out of focus, too.

Drool section of the bookstore. Fairly flat composition, though. I love what it communicates, but your image itself is lacking something. Maybe some 'wow' or ... I don't know in this case.
