Hi John: This is a nice shot and I do like it in B and W. The repeating pattern of the arches are in a pleasing spot within the frame. It's funny, but I was just there at York Minster a few weeks ago. It is truly breathtaking and inspirational.

This is a very nice composition, John, but is it perhaps rather light for an interior view of a cathedral? It does seem so to me - just my opinion, of course.

I do like these kind of shots. Would it have been possible to have taken the image from directly in the center of the aisle?

Thanks all for your comments.

Phillip. it is lighter than you would experience if you were there but that was deliberate. Right or wrong, I reasoned that if you want to show off the building, you don't want to lose any detail in the darker areas. I deliberately chose the north aisle because the light was less contrasty than the south aisle but even so, it was a processing challenge.

Jack, didn't occur to me at the time but the pillars on the RHS lead through into the main part of the Nave and I suspect that I might have introduced a lot of distracting detail on the RHS.

John,

A good image and I think I have learned something when I say to you the perspective correction in this image does it perfectly.
It all works very well, imho. Well done!

Thank you Andre.
