Natural light from the window. (Photo got darker when saved for web to submit.)

This beautiful little Bible and journal were found in the attic of my Grandmother's home when she and my Grandpa moved in in 1927. There is some very faint writing on the inside page (bible opens like a pocket book, not a book to protect the pages)and was printed in 1870.

With only one comment....don't know what I should have done to make this more than middle of the road. Perhaps one of the other shots...

I think the set up here is fine - this might have been better in a sepia tone, to help give it more of an old world feel to it.
