Well.. What to say? The color.. or lack there of is great. I'm really liking how muted, and worn the entire image looks. Not just muted, but moody in a way too, almost like somber reflections of times past, a past rendered into dust by the advancing years.

Exposure and contrast are appealing. As is the lighting, the angle, etc. This shot makes me a little curious about what the book was about, and why it's there like that.

I like how the one page is bluish-green, and the water damage on the page is so brown. Like I said, the rest of the shot is very lacking in color, but that one page kind of grabs the eye. It almost seems like it might have some meaning in regard to the photo it self.

Very thought inspiring.
