Architecture


For our architecture assignment I went downtown to the Cathedral Basilica, wow, what a beautiful place. Now if we could get them to work on their lighting...it would be perfect. As previously mentioned in class, I brought my tripod......however it is a monster, and I hesitated to use it because it was such a pain.



I really was in awe of the beauty of this location, I found myself wishing I had 2 more lenses, a good telephoto, and a good wide, but alas, I had to make do with the kit lens. I played with white balance a few times, and found tungsten was the best for shooting inside this location. Outside, I found I had a really hard time capturing the green of the dome and the blue in the sky in the same shot. I didn't get a chance to go to any other locations as I had hoped, but I think I will give this a try again, I like the challenge.
