Two Stained Glass Windows

This is yet another look at the Washington National Cathedral in DC. It is a 5 shot HDR and until I learned how to make the settings for this series of photos I just didn't like any of them. I also opened this one in Photoscape and added a vignette filter to darken the corners which helps to focus the eye on the column cap. I really like the way the light colors the columns and window jambs. LYLE

Blue Aura

When I took this photo I had great hopes for it. I knew it was a nice composition but I just could not process it to save the color. I tried it three different times and failed each time. I looked at it again today,I turned up the black prior to processing it and it came out like this. This is how I remembered it. LYLE

Side Chapel at Cathedral

This little side chapel is in the National Cathedral in Washington, DC. I shot the image while with Danelle last spring. I hadn't looked at my older photos until recently but when I saw this series of shots waiting to be tonemapped I decided to try to generate an HDR. I had tried earlier by was not happy with the results. I thought this was worth sharing. I am amazed at the detail. LYLE

National Cathedral

Here is a view inside of the National Cathedral in Washington, DC. It is a 5 capture HDR. The main hall is on the left. When President Bush and other presidents attended services here they would sit on the left side at the front of the hall. LYLE
