Has Chris seen this? It is amazing!! Love the pov, the colors and the details. Great job, Susan. #4733885

Susan M. Hembree September 01, 2007

Yes, Chris has seen it, Nikki. The colors are different than anything else I have taken at the cathedral. That's because I shot with my white balanace on irridescent lights at +2. And I had my camera set to "Vivid" on Optimize Photo. My ISO was also at the highest level. It really turned out different. Thanks for your comment. #4734165
