Indeed! 5.6 ;) Sharp. Crisp. You must be at a zoom setting without distortion to pull this off, around 35-50mm?
Went  into LR to check what I did

The zoom was at 28mm

In lens correction / manual / Vertical  at -18 , constrain crop checked
Lens profile correction was left unchecked

I just discovering your thread as I was fishing in a mountainous area without internet connection.

Very nice series, Armando !

Nice to see some pics of Winchester.

It is so shame I am in France while you are in England ! We could meet as I leave only 11 miles away from winchester... :-[

Are you still there after the 24th of September when I come back ?

Thanks to let me know, Francis.

"More of winchester cathedral" shot is mind-blowing Armando. The lighting of this shot is just your signature.

Ok, Armando !

I wait for more news. ;)

By the way, have you had a look in the crypt of the cathedral of Winchester ?

According the rate of humidity (due to the weather) , the floor is flooded and so is the bottom of a statue in the middle of the crypt.

nicely executed - I like it a lot Armando. Quite suitable for a very large print

Armando,

All of them are nice, but the 1st one in post #39 is really outstanding!

This last one, the 10 photo pano, you could fill a wall with that, really nice.

Marble statues of Aphrodite and Apollo

I was fascinated to learn the Apollo sculpture  was found in 122 pieces and reconstructed in the museum

London  street shooting ...

Interesting trio at The Strand


Stopped on the Thames south bank to see people walk by , he looked right back at me when I lifted the camera


I found this photographer/model shooting in the middle of Waterloo bridge, camera on a tripod as tall as the photographer, people walking around them, they seem oblivious to comments, laughs, and people shooting at them with their mobile phones, Canon 50mm f1.8 lens, with that microphone on top of the camera maybe he was doing video ... no crew, no light modifiers, just him and the girl

Great travelogue Armando, hope your journey back is uneventful.

You captured some great images. I managed a few when I was up last weekend, but only on my mobile.

How was your visit to Grays of Westminster? Do you have any extra shiny glass in your bag to take back?!
