Thanks for having a look at this photo. One of Umberto Eco's book has a similar photo on the cover, but that's color. I decided for a different look, that's black and white and with books closer to the lens (filling the frame). The dark becoming light is supposed to show what Eco does: he shines the dark ages, doesn't he? I don't know whether the dark is so extreme; it's black, but not so much, and only for a small part of the photo.
Thanks to JPR for giving me something more than a ribbon!
I think I would have preferred the lighting to be centered on the bindings. It makes me feel like these are very old books and since you chose to use the bindings as the center of attention, it would have worked better for me if that was where the dramatic lighting hit.Refreshing idea though for the challenge.Very creative and good use of thinking outside the box.
