Winchester Cathedral

Had a go at bracketing photos to get this image. If I had taken it with one shot, the camera would have metered for either the dark shadows or the light highlights. This is three images put together in Photomatix

I love this! You have even captured the wooden structural beams behind the arches. Love the colour and lighting.

[Chillen]

Nicely done Catherine. Are you shooting RAW too? That can give you even more control over highlights and shadows.

[Catherine]

@redandwhite Thank you. That came through on my middle image.

[Catherine]

@chillen Thank you. Yes, I shoot in RAW, but these were put together using JPEGs. I should really have spent more time on the RAWs before putting them together, which would have been much better.. Will take another look.

[Chillen]

I'm sure you'll get an even better result with the RAWs Catherine.

[Catherine]

@chillen Was short of time today but you are right and I will have another go. This is a little grainy.

[HTGT]

Heck! And you have the cheek to say you don't have skills....honestly I'm appalled at your lack of honesty Catherine.....😉😸

This is flipping awesome! I think you need to stay there a bit longer...

This is really good - I must have a go at bracketing some time after seeing the results you've got here :)

[Paul]

Very nicely done. Being able to bracket and then put your shots together so easily with editing programs makes life so much simpler. And the light here is lovely 😊😊

[Babs]

Very cleverly done, I love it. The lighting is spectacular.

[Jean Karvelis]

nice capture!

[Dawn]

Well done fav

[Milanie]

I am so impressed with the fabulous lighting here - have never tried something like this - I understand the theory of what you're saying but definitely not the know-how. This is stunning.

[Walks @ 7]

Most impressive. Excellent shot. Fav.

[leggzy]

Beautiful lighting highlighting the arches....gorgeous shot.

[Terri]

So beautiful. Love the light!

[Andrew]

Excellent, HDR is so useful for this type of occasion.

[Margo Sayer]

I had the good fortune to spend a few days @Winchester a couple of years ago VM enjoyed and appreciated the CAthedral and W College. A memorable girly w/e for all the right reasons.

[Brett]

A fantastic architecture shot and the light just makes it even better!

[Claude Trew]

Beautifully captured and lovely lighting.

[bkb in the city]

Such beautiful architecture

[Sue]

That is beautiful Cathy. Absolute fav. I'll have to ask you for a lesson on bracketing!

[Catherine]

@cottiac hilarious!!!

[Catherine]

@blueace thank you. It is easier to use a tripod as it is difficult not to move the camera for 3 shots but I didn't have it with me!

[Catherine]

@paul10 thank you Paul. You can achieve the same results with just one photo in programmes like Photomatix but sometimes it is nice to do it properly!

[Catherine]

@s4sayer it is a beautiful City. Unfortunately the college wasn't open to visitors when I was there but there were plenty of other places to see. Sounds like you had an enjoyable time too.

[Catherine]

@brett101 @claudiet @bkbinthecity thank you. It is a beautiful cathedral and the staff are very photographer friendly!

[Catherine]

@suesouthwood thank you. When we get together we can have a go!

[HTGT]

Knew you'd hit popular with this one - and I hope I didn't cause offense...

[Catherine]

@cottiac thank you!! Bit surprised - it is a funny angle!! You certainly didn't offend!!!! Quite the opposite!!

[HTGT]

@megpicatilly Think the angle added to the image (being dyslexic I nearly typed angel...which really might have caused confusion!)
Phew...!
