Boston Public Library
I stepped into Boston Public Library for the first time, at the end of October, since moving to Boston a couple of months ago, and was taken into a different world. Anyone who knows me, knows how much I love libraries. Everything about them. But this one is unlike any library I've ever been to before. It has made a perfect backdrop for movies such as Knight & Day and The Pink Panther 2, but it certainly is the perfect backdrop for reading.
I instantly wanted to study, to read, to spend the whole day there.
So I did.
Well, the afternoon, anyway.
Here, some stills.

what a gorgeous place! it looks so classic and old-fashioned.
Exquisite images!
Have a great weekend.
Wow, I love this! If any library here looked like this one, I think I might go all the time! Those ceilings are amazing too!
Why I have not gone in there to do work is beyond me! That first photo is amazing..reminds me of our library of UNC Chapel Hill...esp with those green lamps.
Wow - what a wonderful set! The architecture of that building is absolutely stunning and you managed to capture the atmosphere there beautifully. That is a fabulous place to browse through books, to read and study. If I would live in Boston, I would definitely be a regular!
And I like the new layout of your blog a lot, many compliments.
How wonderful! The BPL is such a wonderful building [ the older section at least! ]. Fantastic shot!
pretty photo! love the pattern all of those green lamps make.
