Potter-mania


Yesterday was a big day in France for Harry Potter fans. The 7th and final volume was available in the shops...la magie continue. You can read more - in French - HERE.

I took this photograph in the summer - a boy, in the centre of Menton, entranced.

  1. Jilly, this is a wonderful portrait. He is indeed engrossed in the book. Great capture.

  2. I'll have to go out and get a copy Jilly. In the meanwhile I was just too tempted to Photoshop harry Potter in my other blog!

  3. So wonderful to see a young lad outside reading instead of inside with eyes glued to a TV monitor, playing computer games. JK Rowling has done an enormous service to our youngest generation.

    Great capture, Jilly.

  5. Isn't it great to see kids enjoy reading, especially in today's video game world?

    I remember being a kid his age and loved reading fantasy stories. Now I barely have time to read except on holidays.
