You're patient and you persevere in order to get a nice shot. But considering the shot itself, and not the act of taking it... to me this says you're what everybody expects, you're perfect, you're a type-A personality. Because unfortunately the commonality of this type of shot here at DPC has colored my perspective.

When I think about it more than just on first glance, though, my thoughts are different and deeper. It's a very lovely shot. The colors make me think happy and warm things about the self behind the photo and I feel that the self is vibrant and fun, ready to experiment or to take on the day.

Nice detail on the spine and pages but the composition seems awkward. You probably photographed it this way to show the spine and nice colour of the pages but it just doesn't work for me, sorry. Good lighting though, and like I said good detail and colour!
