I just about managed to find time to shoot for today’s Church Windows theme after I finished teaching this afternoon. I sneaked along to St. Mary’s Church in Funtington, intending to shoot some photos to make an HDR image. I took quite a few frames of this particular window at different exposures and tried combining them. However when I did I felt the glorious colours in the glass lost their subtle glow so I decided to just tweak the one exposure to create the effect I was after.

Gorgeous - such a softness. Beautifully captured. danrav · 2012-03-07: 18:13

I believe that here the nature was imperative and the HDR would have been credibly superfluous! You were right Helen josy63 · 2012-03-08: 00:35

I like that you did not go for strong light through the windows. it adds warmth to the scene slowpete · 2012-03-08: 00:41

Brilliant results Helen! The colours are extraordinary. This stained glass window seems to have a 3D effect. Beautifully done! ArtBee · 2012-03-08: 09:47
