Evora´s Cathederal Photo

Photographer’s Note

You can belive or not in God... but belive me, this Cathederal is AMAZING. You feel so small inside that place!
I have no words to describe it.
Enjoy this angle.

I agree with you and most of the time Cathedrale are beautifull, even if you believe in god or not. But your shot is too dark, so I have made a Workshop to enhance the light.

I think anyone can be moved by a cathedral. They are amazing places. The size, the lighting, the overall feel. It's all amazing. Here there is a good job capturing the heaviness of the stone and the graceful use of the heavy material. And a bit of the lighting creating a strong effect. But it's very noisy and too dark. But that is a problem with getting photos in these places. They give all sorts of obstacles. But still, I like the idea here with the strong light and the heavy, but graceful, stone.

This is lovely composition with very strong details in it, Carlos! The accent on the light sources is very effective and increases the impact of the interior. Anything that could be improved with a little touch here and there is not a big problem for a picture, so I like it. Well done!

By the exposure and angle this cathedrale looks very mysterious. I like the way you have to work to envisage the space of the sancted edifice in the darkness. Nice work, Carlos.

Very difficult for taken this picture Carlos, but this is well wonderful, only beneath maybe little bit dark. You did good work.

Good interior shot, Carlos. The architecture does look impressive, and your angle shows a lot of interesting detail. The strong light accentuates the intricate building materials quite well. Try using a tripod (there are some really good inexpensive ones available) and a slower shutter speed next time, you will get a better sharpness and brighter detail. Well captured.

Ditto. A bit dark overall.

La composition est réussie mais entre ombre et lumière pas facile de faire un choix

Very excellent capture and a very moody shot - You manage to give us an image with a lovely atmosphere. The light spot you got in the lamppost nice to watch.
