Original – Apse of Our Lady of the Assumption, an old parish church in Windsor, Ontario, Canada

Reason: Well, this is my first relatively successful attempt to emulate Diliff's fantastic cathedral photography. Although I did take some shots of the nave (both from near the altar and elsewhere), this is the only one I'm comfortable nominating. It shows the apse of Our Lady of the Assumption in Windsor, Ontario, which is the oldest Catholic church in Canada west of Quebec.

Support - is it the new camera? Hafspajen (talk) 23:15, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, still the 60D. I'm waiting til I'm back in Indonesia to look into getting a 6D. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:19, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Question - Fantastic picture. Does it seem like it has the slightest (.1 or .2 degrees) CW tilt? Very well could just be me...--Godot13 (talk) 06:04, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Very hard to tell the difference. In either case, great image and Support.--Godot13 (talk) 00:08, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wasn't much at 0.1, but it did look straighter. Thanks. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:17, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Question The figure on the left (as well as the right) appear quite distorted when I zoom in. Is this a problem with my computer, or is that in the actual image? Mattximus (talk) 01:16, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's natural with the field of view used. I don't recall it off the top of my head, but the vertical field of view was pushing 80 degrees. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:26, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Nicely done. The vertical angle of view is pretty extreme though. I would have perhaps added some vertical compression in PTGui (just a small amount can make a big difference to an image like this). Ðiliff «» (Talk) 11:50, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I'll have to remember that one for next time. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:01, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
