- Support Wow ... didn't realize that there were people sitting up front. Nice. Daniel Case (talk) 04:45, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
- Do you consider the people sitting at the front to be a good thing? I generally try to avoid people in my church photos, and will wait until it's empty if possible. Not just for aesthetic reasons, but also because these interiors often require very long exposures (20-30 seconds per section is not uncommon) and people tend to move and blur, which often looks ugly. You can see it has happened with the man on the left. From my experience, most churches receive mainly interested visitors rather than parishioners and these people tend to sit at the back and don't stay seated for long, which makes photography reasonably easy if you have the patience to wait, but this church seemed to be a local parish church (albeit quite an impressive one) and there was always a small gathering of people praying at the front of the church so I had no choice but to take the photo with them in it. If people is representative of the church, I don't mind, but when it's just a random tourist picking their nose and staring at their phone, I'd rather the photo without them. ;-) Diliff (talk) 10:32, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
- In this case, yes I do consider the people up front a good thing as they're obviously worshipping. I understand how your way of doing this requires the space be empty, which was another reason this was extraordinary. Daniel Case (talk) 04:58, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

- Support Good, I don't mind the people here since they are as you say representative of the church and I expect almost to find some people sitting in a church (at least in a local Roman Catholic parish church).--ArildV (talk) 19:00, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
