Seven sisters

Posted by
Curly (South Shields, United Kingdom) on 2 August 2017 in Architecture and Portfolio.

A view of the Seven Sisters windows and the Rose window situated in the apse of Durham Cathedral. I think HDR is just perfect for bringing out the colour, contrast, and details here, and capturing a wider gamut of the visible light.

Three hand held shots using the auto exposure bracketing mode were used before processing in Photomatix.

PENTAX K100D 1/20 second F/5.6 ISO 1600 27 mm (35mm equiv.)

Use control and your mouse scroll wheel to zoom the picture/page, then control and 0 to reset to normal size.

Splendid capture with incredible detail and colors!! The HDR processing is just perfect which highlights the colors well. The amount of colors in the stained glass also highlights the intricate design.
