Hi Peter,

This is really lovely. It is very atmospheric in this light and the detail is great!
I guess it is not easy to get a good picture of burning candles either!!

Best wishes, Rosa.

Thank you so much Rosa,

I am so pleased that you have enjoyed it. In general, I do find churches a challenge, since you can't take tripods, and there's always a lot of people milling around, and the lighting can be almost anything!! (in this case I do have a special 'low profile tripod' which works really well.)
As for the candles, only the red ones are real candles, the yellow are electric light bulbs!! But as you say, the exposure is never right!!

Best Wishes
Peter

Beautifully taken and I'm glad to read that I'm not the only one finding churches challenging.

Hi Steve,
