This image conveys 3 different aspects of a book. First of all, a book is a reflection of one's mind, hence the reflection. Secondly, like an arrow, it gives us a direction, hence the arrow (created by its cover). And of course, it is close to our heart and hence the heart shape (created by its pages).

Love what you've done here, real imagination with what can often be a fairly mundane subject matter of a book - without doubt deserving of making a finalist spot in the books and magazines contest, really top work indeed,

Location
This photo was taken inside my study room.Time
It was evening time.Lighting
I used only a single source of light to take this photo. All other ambient lights were switched off to ensure the dark background. The book was kept on a glass top table to create the reflection. This was taken with Tripod to avoid any camera shake at low light.Equipment
Canon 6D, EF 100 F2.8L Macro, TripodInspiration
It was ViewBug :) There was a contest on Books and Magazine. I wanted to capture something different by using a book. and after a few trial, I got this shot. This one conveys 3 different aspects of a book. A book is a reflection of one's mind, hence the reflection on the glass. Like an arrow, it gives us a direction, hence the arrow (by its cover). And of course, it is close to our heart and hence the heart shape (by its pages).Editing
Not much, except RAW to JPEG conversion.In my camera bag

For still live, always try with tripod as it allows you to use low light photography with low ISO. Use single source of light often yield a classy look (with dark background).
