    Exposures were just a little too long, the lights are very blown out in the first 2 shots.

    What a lovely building, I particularly like the composure of the second shot.

    Ohhhhh my they have stained glass panels in the double doors and overhead panel as well as the windows ..... gosh I'd like to see what the inside is like nod.gif

    I hope you get a chance to shoot there again, looks to be a real nice place to shoot ......... well done thumb.gif .... Skippy :D

    Chris, I agree with Skippy. Since the source of the blow-out is in the bottom portion of the frame a ND grad filter may have helped.

    Yes I agree with both of you, unfortunately I did not have a lot of time or all my kit with me. But I could not pass up getting some shots of the place even though I was on my way home from work and tired. I did have a star filter but it did not work well due to the bright lights that were overexposed. The whole place is amazing. I shall return to it.
