SHORT DESCRIPTION
  •  Info all by me, -- DXR (talk) 19:24, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support The interior of Eibingen Abbey. The outside of the church is neo-romanesque and thus makes the church appear very old even though it was only built around 1904. Quite differently, the interior is colorful and has many detailed paintings mainly celebrating the life of Hildegard von Bingen, something very unusual for churches in my region which are usually rather plain. -- DXR (talk) 19:24, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support I had to restrain myself from making a deep YAICP sigh when seeing the image (Yet Another Interior Church Pano). But then again it should not be held against you that we have recently seen so many nice church panos that it is hard not to feel "saturated". Excellent exposure control, detail level and technique. Wow too, although not as much as other ICPs we have seen recently. I appreciate the interior is from a slightly different period and of a different style, then most other things we have seen. -- Slaunger (talk) 19:43, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support. Ahh, the ol' YAICP problem. ;-) But I suppose we have much more exterior building photography, are you also tiring of those Slaunger? In any case, I'm soon going to start uploading some ICP from Lithuania and Latvia and I regret that you may see one or two of them here also! The problem I find is that almost all of my ICP images are of very similar technical quality, so the question remains: Which one should I nominate? It feels like cheating by only nominating the most interesting/beautiful interiors because I'm only capturing it; I didn't create it. So I like to see the less ostentatious interiors too.

    •  Comment Yeah Diliff, there are also certains types of exterior architectural shots, which could use a bit more diversity;-) But of course I am mostly joking regarding the YAICPs, but it would be nice to also have more nominations of other types of interiors than churches for a change. -- Slaunger (talk) 19:25, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • Haha, not wrong, but churches are usually nice subjects since they do not charge you to enter (well, at least in Germany), they are usually out of copyright and calm enough to concentrate on panos. An you have them basically everywhere. Palaces etc. are tougher to shoot without being told off, espc. with tripod, train/subway stations around my location (Frankfurt etc.) are very busy and still not out of copyright... --DXR (talk) 19:44, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        • It's much the same reasoning for me. :-) I'd love to be able to shoot more varieties of interiors but as you say, churches are usually free and less likely to restrict tripods. The only thing that staff in many of the English cathedrals were quite concerned with was if I was shooting 'commercially'. I said I wasn't, which is true, but I knew it would ring alarm bells in their heads if I tried to explain the Creative Commons licensing and how it could be used commercially, so I kept the conversation short. ;-) Diliff (talk) 20:13, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support nice quality and composition. Great work! Nikhil (talk) 02:01, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support --Böhringer (talk) 07:04, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support I have no problems with YAICP :) This photo is imho special and the interior with plenty of wall paintings quite unique. Technically very well done. I hope other church interior photographers will not become frustrated because such interior panos need a lot of post-processing and are technically challenging and usually require special pano hardware. Diliff (and you) set the bar very high :) --Tuxyso (talk) 08:18, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
