"The Beauty Of Sainte-Chappelle"

One of my favorite images - I made this image while we were touring France a few years ago.  La Sainte-Chappelle in Paris is one of the most beautiful church interiors I have ever seen.  Point the camera anywhere, and it seems you capture a stunningly beautiful image. 

The color contrasts, the soaring architecture, the rich detail of the stain glass windows leaves one breathless when standing in the astounding magnificence of this location.

I chose a very wide angle lens, pointed the camera towards the ceiling, opted for a very symmetrical composition, and fired away. 

Camera specs: Canon 5D fitted with Sigma 12-24mm lens at 12mm, F4.5 @ 1/4 second 9handheld), ISO 1600.  Enjoy!  -David

Hi Everybody,

I just barely got this post up today – it’s one of my favorite travel images.  We’re on an “all-day” shoot today so I’ve got just a few minutes to spare.  Tomorrow is more of the same. That said, I’m cutting it short today.

How about I plan to see you again next Monday.  I’ll share a few of this weekend’s images with you too. Have a great weekend and I’ll see you on the flipside.

-David
