1/10/06 - Going Up?

Cathedral column rising up to the 10 story high ceiling. Lining up this shot was harder than I would have thought. Of course the awkward camera angle (awkward if you've got to look up through the viewfinder with a low camera) didn't help. Things are mostly in line and straight - not perfect, but good enough. An incandescent light near the top left was troublesome.
The perspective is tricky. The three "curvy pieces" coming in from each side about 1/3 down the frame from the top are less than 1/2 of the way up.

Nikon D70s
1s f/22.0 at 38.0mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

You caught a beatiful angle for this one.

You did an excellent job because without hearing your explanation, I couldn't quite figure out which way was which. This makes a beautiful abstract!
