I Went Back to Church

Last week, I posted my photos of St James Anglican Church, but I think I said that I wanted to go back because I felt that there was more to be photographed. I had thought to take vertical panos to get more of the ceiling in some shots, and I did take them, but Lightroom did not find a way to stitch them together. Oh well.

But I took some other shots that worked even if they aren't stellar.

Actually, this first one is from the previous shoot, but I hadn't yet processed it. Oddly enough, it may be the best of this lot. This choir loft with those lights with the stained glass behind is awesome (to borrow jargon from the kids) and continues to intrigue me.

Now, I have more windows to show because they are pretty doggone great, not to mention awesome dude.

The whole western wall in a pano stitch of 3 photos, which accounts for the bevel,
which I think is not a terrible effect.

Last week I did the reflection in the piano looking west. This eastern view is not as good. I did try to turn the light on in post because they were off that morning, but it looks a bit phony. I'd like to try this again with the lights on. 

I returned to the choir area and shot with the hymn selection behind.

Now that I know the vertical pano shots don't work for me, I'd like to return one more time without wasting time on them to get some detail photos as well as the western windows.
