Photo Hunt — "written"


I wonder what the monks who wrote these 
tomes would think of the Kindle!
This shot was snuck in low light (hence the poor quality) 
with a b. d. camera  in the Musée du Moyen Age, in Paris.

    Am glad that you didn't use a flash when taking a photo of that old piece of writing as, from what I've been given to understand, strong lighting can damage it.
