Support -- Diliff (talk) 01:39, 26 February 2015 (UTC)- Support Ranks with your best work in Britain. Love the raking light on the aisle floor. Daniel Case (talk) 03:51, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

- Support I often read about the technical achievements of user:Diliff but they most of the time serve already beautiful, extremely well thought and composed pictures. Here I love the wide angle stretching. Enough to give us a feel of how big the place is, but not as far as to scream "distorsion" (in the sense non aesthetic). The side and subtle coloured lighting is also very beautiful and fortunate. In short : big wow ! (and in my head "how come I didn't get to shot this myself ??") - Benh (talk) 12:16, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks Benh. Well, all I can say is: If it was always there, why didn't you visit? ;-) Diliff (talk) 13:36, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- I actually never noticed that one. But the truth is I don't really go after churches... Also, I don't have that "eye" to notice when a scene can render great. It's pretty much like the "pont neuf" panorama, which I was in front of dozens of time, with all my gear set up and ready to fire up, but never thought it would render so nice. I once thought getting good gear would bring me great pics, but there seems to be something else. - Benh (talk) 18:00, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- Correction. I entered that church once, but thought it wasn't worth a shot. This confirms my previous statement :) - Benh (talk) 18:09, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- Come on Benh, I love coming back to your images (and Diliff's, too, but that is obvious...). If you don't have an eye, then 98% of people are blind ;-). I feel that I haven't taken one truly good image of my actual home town and sometimes a fresh location and the mindset of travelling just help to make something different. --DXR (talk) 19:52, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks DXR :) Now I really look like the guy who fished for contradiction. I agree with you too yet some people living in London can take good pics of their hometown :) (and even though my last trip was fruitless in term of good pics). - Benh (talk) 20:26, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- The light often makes or breaks the photo Benh. Maybe it just wasn't lit up very nicely on the day you entered. There are plenty of churches in which the lighting just makes it very difficult to photograph well, such as this one. It was even more monochromatic yellow originally, that image you see on Commons is my attempt to desaturate it a bit but it's still very.... yellow. I still take the photo of course, but I'm not always happy with the results. Diliff (talk) 19:14, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
- I'm afraid it's my eyes... I saw it in white and gold. Think this disqualifies me as a reviewer on FPC :) - Benh (talk) 09:46, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
- Benh, anyone who saw that dress in white and gold should sell their photo gear and take up poetry instead. It most certainly disqualifies you. Quite remarkable how many visually incorrect people there are! -- Colin (talk) 14:30, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
- I have to admit, I felt the same way after seeing that dress. I really tried over and over to adjust my display and viewing conditions to see if I could recreate what others were seeing and I just couldn't. It was an incredibly poorly photographed dress though, grossly overexposed with an overly warm white balance, but even so, it was never even close to gold and white. :-) Diliff (talk) 17:16, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

- Looks like a kind of furniture to me - Benh (talk) 09:55, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
- Not a "furniture", just a result of this, during the Mass of the Passion, 88 persons killed, 68 wounded.--Jebulon (talk) 17:01, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
