•  Info Central nave of the Church of San Miguel, Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. The church is composed of 3 naves, where the central nave is higher than the lateral ones, with pillars decorated with gothic motifs and very diverse baldachins, whereas the altar is a work from 1609 by Juan Martínez Montañés 1609. The construction of the church began in 1484 due to a visit of the Catholic Monarchs to Jerez de la Frontera, but it took several centuries to complete, resulting in a harmonious mixture of elements from the late Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque.

•  Support maybe a small vertical line problem on the right side, easy to fix IMO (see door)... --Hubertl 14:08, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
•  Weak Support. Although I would say that some of the highlights at the top seem a little too overexposed (more highlight reduction needed?) and the shadow detail is much noisier than I would expect for a ISO 100 HDR processed image. Perhaps the brightest exposure of the bracket did not 'expose to the right' for the shadows? What bracketing settings did you use? Also, I'd have liked to see a bit more foreground, it seems to have the same issue that many of Livio's church interiors have - lots of ceiling and not much flooring. I try to keep it as near to the rule of thirds as possible. I understand that when you are limited by the focal length of your widest lens, you may have to compromise somewhere though. Perhaps next time you could at least take two frames (one upper and one lower) and stitch them together, if you're not willing to go down the 'full mosaic' route that I take.

  David, I have reduced hightlights now a bit more, but this will not get more detail on the upper part of the window on the top right. I just used 3 frames, probably should have used 5 as it was extremely dark there (only the candles in the center and the rays of light through the windows). The brightest frame (30 seconds) was not as bright as I had hoped, so I should have probably set it to bulb and waited for 1 min or increased ISO to 200. Regarding your suggestion about taking 2 frames, I'll try it out. In this case, I can actually offer more crop on the bottom but that results in a worse perspective IMHO. I usually find the ceiling more interesting than the floor and the closer benches distract a bit as there are spaces among them. Poco² 16:54, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

thanks. Very good! --Hubertl 17:31, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

•  Support. (Parenthetically, "harmonic" is used for music, but the phrase would be a "harmonious mixture of elements".) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:01, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

  Thanks for the note Ikan Kekek, I've corrected it Poco² 22:08, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

•  Support The sharpness is not as crisp as many of the church interiors we usually have but the quality is still very high, the subject is very interesting and the perspective seems ok for me, too. --Code (talk) 07:46, 9 January 2016 (UTC)
