Camera - Nikon D 40 Lens - 18-55mm kit lens I hand held this shotInspiration
The beauty and the vastness of the architecture along with the peaceful emotion that I felt, while inside the auditorium, inspired me to capture this moment.Editing

All I had at that time all I had was my Nikon D 40 with two lenses 15-55mm with a 55-200mm lens.Feedback
If I were to shoot this again I would use a tripod to get an crisper shot. I would advise, even if you are lacking in equipment to shoot it anyway because you never know how it will turn out. Always take more pictures than you think you will need, because more times than I can count I have said "why didn't I take just one more shot." It's always better to have too many captures than not enough. Adding people to most pictures make it relatable. Of course, there are always exceptions when people do not add to a photo but in most circumstances a person is a great addition. Be patient in this type of situation and wait till the perfect moment.
