Reason: I know, there's the danger of church interior burnout again. But I really quite like the interior of this church. It's very ornate and well appointed, and although there is minimal stained glass in the sanctuary, what is visible is well rendered and interesting. As is typical of my panoramas, the resolution and detail is good.

Support - Another fantastic image. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:52, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support - A great image! One can see many details, even of things in the distance, and the view includes a great deal of the interior of the church. Also, the vantage point just slightly off a direct view up the center aisle makes the picture interesting -- or is it slightly off? Now I'm not sure. Well, I like it anyway.

- Thanks! Actually, it's not off centre. At least, it shouldn't be, and if it is, it's only very slight. I find that the centred composition usually works best and people complain if there isn't symmetry. Because this is a wide angle view, even being slightly off centre usually has fairly dramatic effects on the perspective (the effect of perspective increases as angle of view increases).

comment the Roof and chairs feel a bit too HDRish.©Geni (talk) 17:41, 12 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- I did think so too at first, it's the shadows that are weaker than one would expect. But actually if I were to show you an individual frame from the panorama (non-HDR and not processed in any way), it would look very similar. The 'HDR look' of the scene is mainly the way the interior is lit IMO. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 18:05, 12 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  - Here's an example of the chairs taken from the brightest frame of the bracket. The only change is reduction of the exposure by 0.70EV to match the brightness of the image. And another example showing the ceiling. This time reduced by 0.90EV to match the brightness of the image. I think both look quite similar to the nominated image. There are differences obviously, but they relate more to the reduction of highlights (such as in the stained glass and reflective surfaces) than a big change to the fundamental tonality of the scene. Anyway, you're welcome to oppose, I just wanted to show you the original files so you could consider if you really think it's 'HDRish'. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 19:35, 12 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
