Sunday Stills: High tech/low tech

The challenge this week was a little more complex: high tech/low tech. You had to photograph something that showed a high tech solution with its accompanying low tech solution. I thought this would be a hard one, and then I looked at my ereader, and I had my subject.

I was a skeptic of ereaders for quite awhile, being a die hard reader of books. (My first novel was Anne of Green Gables, at age 5.) But my friend, January, converted me to the dark side. And once you're there, you can't go back. Having all my books in my purse, at the ready for any spare moment, has been a revelation.

  4. That's a good point - to be able to carry all your books in your purse. I've not gone to the dark side yet, but you make it seem a little "nicer". Nice shot!

  6. I just started looking at the Book Readers and think they are a great idea! But then, I like to keep my books.
