[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Last sunday was one of those dull grey days.
Our neighbours wanted to go visit some churches which had their doors opened on that day. So off we went and visited 2 One which had a lot of history, well kept on the outside because of the stones but very worn down inside.

This one is St Luke's Anglican church located in the village of Hemmingford. Built in 1856 it is still in excellent condition due to the generousity of the people who contribute to keep it operational and well kept.

We snapped a few but I like how this one came out, showing the bit of light on the books and pews.

Cropped the other leaded window to the right, and sharpened.

Hi Dot,
A challenging and tricky light condition that you managed to handle. I also like to see how the light fallen onto certain spots, giving a nice drama and interest. The result is great, especially for such a spiritual place.

Hello, Dot -
Very peaceful atmosphere conveyed in this well-composed shot. I like the contrast of the natural light filtering in through the window next to the artificial light from the single round lamp. The illumination of the pews and books, and the way they are angled, are a very nice touches. Well seen and captured.

Hello Dot!

Nice composition, lighting and pov! TFS.

Hi Dot,

I love the composition in this photo. The natural light from the window combined with the wall light gives a very interesting luminance to the interior of the church. Great shot!!

TFS.

Hi Dot
Intresting & attractive shot and great effect of the light through the stained glass of churche's window. The dim light on the right on the wall balancing the window's bright light on the left.

Creatively use of rule of third.

Hello Dot,
an excellent display of light and shadow management. The window is really lovely and the source of light on the other side make is more interesting and give good impact to the shot.
Brilliant display of the inner of the church.
