This pic would've been better as a black and white. But what you did is OK.

Good idea... I like how the books seem to go on forever. However, the photo seems to be very grainy, and the shelf is a bit too exposed... perhaps a different angle would help, or taking the photo at a different time of day (assuming this was sunlit) might help.

I don't know hat colour these books were originall but I am sure it wasn't anything like this. If you did this yellow thing on purpose then I apologise but it doesn't enhance the work for me. If not then you needed to choose the correct white balance setting on your camera. You could have corrected the colour in photoshop or similar, I tried it and ended up with dark brownish books with gold lettering, quite natural looking. Alternativly it looks good in balck and whit - very stark and foreboding. Really nice copmosition and a great idea for the challenge. The shelves are overexposed though and detract from the image. It's a pity the books aren't lined up perfectly.

Could have been portrait-oriented and called 'Cover you tracks'...

Oh, how I hate taxes, so many, so annoying and so complex – a clever and subtle picture that tells a story instantlyâ€Â¦ This picture was (I think) a lot harder to take than it would first seem – you have achieved a great depth of field in what is a very close up image, you have fully captured the essence of the challenge and it's a great picture (10)

I wonder what the year 2002 volumes will look like... In fact, I think a stack of more recent volumes might have been more dramatic.
