- Info created by Diliff - uploaded by Diliff - nominated by Diliff. I've considered nominating this image in the past as it's always been among my favourites from Salisbury Cathedral, but I wasn't sure that the unusual angle and projection would be well received here. Given the success of my previous nomination which had a similarly unusual angle, I thought I'd give this one a try. The focus is on the ceiling of the Lady Chapel, but the projection, which is spherical, and the wide angle of view allows you to see the stained glass windows of both sides in such a way that would otherwise be impossible with a regular rectilinear projection.

- Support A very pleasing design. I don't mind if it becomes somewhat abstract due to the odd projection. A similar situation occurs with macro photographs that can be like nothing any human could visualise. However, neither the file title nor image description gives any clue as how the distorted view is produced/configured. I sometimes stick "fisheye" in my filenames to make it clear this isn't a regular projection. But at least the image description should say something, perhaps linking to or explaining the projection chosen. -- Colin (talk) 13:01, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
