Thank you! I'm so sorry for the delayed response! This photo was taken from the inside of one of the chambers (I believe it was the Royal Chamber) in the Tower of London.

Location
This photo was taken at the Tower of London looking out through the window in the queen's chamber on to the courtyard and the Thames.Time
After walking around enjoying the Christmas cheer in the air, on a late December day, it started raining down on London's cobblestone streets. My family and I decided to go on a tour of the Tower of London and wait out the rain. This photo was taken in the cloud-softened, afternoon light.Lighting
The queen's chamber was dimly lit, but through the storm clouds the sun was still brightly lighting up the city.Equipment
This photo was taken on a simple iPhone camera without flash.Inspiration
I love looking out of windows and using framing in photography. This window pane had a very interesting pattern in it and the Thames and courtyard being outside combined to make a beautiful scene.Editing
No, I did not.In my camera bag
When going out with the intention of taking photos, I will bring a Nikon D5300 with a Sigma 17-50mm lens, an extra battery, and a charger. I like to keep things simple and light and generally will only bring one lens with me at a time. However, this photo was taken on an iPhone.Feedback
Take a moment to look around you and see if there are interesting lines or structures you can use to add dimension to your photo. Finding ways to frame photos will capture the eye faster and keep it interested longer. Architecture is an amazing assistant in this and there are also lots of opportunities in nature to achieve the same effect. Windows, doorways, hallways, roofs, fences, trees, flowers (especially from a worm's eye view), and sometimes even animals themselves can all be used to add dimension and a framing element to your photo. As long as you look at scenes and objects around you from various perspectives, a vast majority of framing opportunities will present themselves.
