glorious colour

After visiting the exhibition of John Piper's textiles at Pallant House, we went to Chichester Cathedral to see, once again, his tapestry the making of which features in that exhibition.

Interesting how 'dissecting' something visually makes you see it with fresh eyes. The tapestry was made by French monks and is Piper's first public piece.
Amazing detail, colour and depth of field, checked the Exif file to see how your camera was set, well done its a beautiful image Hazel, Fav:)

You've captured the bright and colourful tapestry well. It must be good to see 'in reality'.

Peter, thank you. I mostly shoot on aperture priority and usually only set the aperture, letting the camera do the rest (love my Sony a6000) since having one or two mishaps forgetting to change wb and iso going from outdoors to indoors. For this shot I also set focal length just to frame what I wanted to capture.

Thanks, Linda - I'm always drawn to the peace and beauty of church/cathedral interiors.

It's really colorful and looks more like a painting than a tapestry. Great shot!
