1. You know I like it!

What I like: you've managed to balance the lighting very well, adso. I'd have either blown out the natural light coming in to get the detail of the ceiling, or make the interior too dark trying to get the detail of the well-lit dome. So good job, You! :thumbsup:

:rofl:

Sorry, I couldn't resist. I am into symbolism, and all, but there is some that is a bit far out.......

Nice pic!! I am sure I would screw up the light/dark thing. Kudos for that......

4. Oh, I would so, So, SO like to be able to claim superior raw technical ability on this shot...

but it was, IIRC, taken with a disposable film camera (either Fuji or Kodak), the film was developed and loaded onto a disk, and I adjusted the values in after-image processing.

I don't have the raw, pure talent so many in this group do...but I do try to keep the after-image processing to as much of a minimum as I can.

Just not with THIS shot... :hide:

5. Meh.

I used to feel guilty about image processing until I realized it was all fairly arbitrary in film development, too, depending often on what the technician thought the color balances should be. So I still say it's a great shot! :)
