- Comment WB is off. A bit lower. --Mile (talk) 10:04, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
- Comment I don't even open it full size (fairly certain it's sharp and all) but it doesn't seem like it's taken at day time. Windows/stained glasses should be brighter. Your thoughts? - Benh (talk) 11:02, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
- It was taken on a very cloudy and overcast morning (9:30am) and there are large trees directly outside the stained glass windows (this photo was taken the same morning). I don't think they should be brighter to be honest. As for the WB, I also think this is pretty representative of it. The whole cathedral was lit in a very warm lighting, but particularly the lady chapel which is much more strongly lit than the rest of the building (it's actually somewhat blinding coming from other parts of the cathedral). Already, the white balance was set to a colour temperature of 3100K, which if you've done many interiors, you would probably know is very cold. I could bring the colour temperature down even further but the problem with this is that it makes the stained glass windows far too blue (as you can see, particularly in the side windows, they are already strongly on the blue side), but also, the colours will look faded with a WB colour temp of less than 3000K. I don't know precisely what kind of lighting this is (it appears halogen but not sure), but according to this article on the colour rendering index, incandescent/halogen lighting has a colour temperature of 3200K which is almost exactly what I've used. So to make a long story short, I don't think there's a problem with the stained glass windows or the WB. Diliff (talk) 15:02, 15 August 2015 (UTC)

- Support I actually think the attenuated exterior light helps in this case. Daniel Case (talk) 17:56, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
