    All a cathedral ...shocking ;o)

    Its not often I manage to get all a cathedral in as normally that are so built up around its pointless - but with the help of my new best friend (lens) and holding the camera above my head to try and control verticals I managed to get this shot ...

    Like that a lot Ian. The blue against the stone is a great contrast.

    Well done for holding the camera high!! You need a step ladder

        This is an instance of where an articulated screen would have been most useful.........................
        Canon EOS R5, R6 plus the usual suspects ......

            Nice one Ian. The light across the stonework is excellent. See if your mate will give you a piggy back next time and get someone to take a picture for us

                  Looks good Ian

                  Did you consider standing back and doing a pano to get it all in the frame

                    thanks Stan - this was me hard against a wall, in fact I even removed my backpack to give me a little more space.
