Photographer’s Note
From Wikipedia's "Notre-Dame de Montréal Basilica":
The church's architecture is among the most dramatic in the world; its interior is grand and colourful, its ceiling is coloured deep blue and decorated with golden stars, and the rest of the sanctuary is a polychrome of blues, azures, reds, purples, silver, and gold. It is filled with hundreds of intricate wooden carvings and several religious statues. Unusual for a church, the stained glass windows along the walls of the sanctuary do not depict biblical scenes, but rather scenes from the religious history of Montreal. It also has a Canadian-built Casavant Frères pipe organ, which comprises four keyboards, 97 stops, almost 7000 individual pipes and a pedal board.

I like the colors and sharpness. I like the contrast of lights and shadows... you've managed well to capture a clear and sharp picture. Maybe, it is a little rotated to the right but nothing that cannot be fixed. TFS
