[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hello everyone,
this was taken a couple of hours ago in Hereford Cathedral. There's a small rack holding candles with a big stained glass window in the background and I thought this made a nice shot. Not that I'm in any way religious.

Contrast and brightness increased.
Saturation increased.
Resized for upload.
The graininess on this one is deliberate, by the way. I think it adds to the atmosphere.
Have a nice relaxing Sunday everyone!
Cheers, John.

Hi John,
Although it's grainy I like your "take a moment to reflect" image.
It breathes the calm atmosphere of the cathedral.
Well seen and well displayed.

Hello John

Nice use of dof and good composition.

Maybe you should have crop the bottom part, to keep only the 2 upper entire candles.
But it's only my advice

Interesting shot, I like the out of focus stained glass window in the background.
Nice one.
Cheers, Dad

Hello John thought this was an excellent creative shot the background colours of the stained glasss perfectly blurred, nicely exposed tfs rgds Necip.

Great capture here John.
I love the concept and the composition.
Not so sure about the graininess though.
I think it would be nice to see the windows a bit more.
Wonderful shot anyway.
