•  Support It is interesting to compare with Diliff's photo he took on his Cathedral's of England tour, which looks down one side only. I think the double corridors here is a superior view and Diliff's has a bit too much wide-angle-perspective distortion on the left and top. I also prefer the warmer colour here. Diliff's is still the master of sharpness, detail and HDR, with the stained glass particularly clearly presented. This is a fine FP. -- Colin (talk) 16:30, 27 October 2018 (UTC)

• @Colin: I think the lack of sharpness of this one is mainly caused by diffraction (f/22 on an APS-C sensor compared to Diliff's f/11 on full-frame with the excellent Sigma 50mm Art lens). Additionally the postprocessing maybe could have been done somewhat better here. However, as I already said, the picture definitely deserves the FP star. --Code (talk) 19:19, 27 October 2018 (UTC)

@Colin: And Diliff picture was taken 4 years ago with a very inferior camera, I cant understand why the people NOT USE pano pictures in cases like this where a nodal ninja is the right way --Photographer 19:53, 27 October 2018 (UTC)

Not everyone has Nodal Ninja equipment. ;) In this case a Koolehaoda Panoramic Head was used. --Cart (talk) 20:07, 27 October 2018 (UTC)

You are right, it was just a downsized picture Cart --Photographer 20:43, 27 October 2018 (UTC)

Many of the photos uploaded via WLM come from photographers who make their first upload on Commons for the contest, and they have no idea about how we see photos here at FPC. --Cart (talk) 20:47, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
