Location
This image was captured in Portugal, at Guarda´s Cathedral. This Cathedral is based on the highest city of Portugal.Time
In the morning, during a visit to the cathedral.Lighting
I have some difficult to get images with same exposure since this this is a composite of 32 images, because the light incidence from the right part of the image. The best part of the day to get photos here is in the morning, but there is a problem, i must be here at 8 of the morning and this is closed. Since there is a difference of light, i have to take some images with faster shutter speed on the right.Equipment
I used my camera Nikon D7100, the 18-105 lens and a trippod.Inspiration
I have been here a lot of times, but never take a photo were i can get almost in a single frame. This photo is composed with 32 images and shows in front a vision of 180º and from the ceiling to the ground 90º. There is no lens to get this without circular distortion. I prefered get a image were a produce some distortion on laterals.Editing
I created image with microsoft ICE. The image was then processed in LR and converted to BNW.In my camera bag
Nikon D7100, Nikkor AF 50 1.8, Nikkor AF 18-108, Sigma 10-20, Porst 50 1.7 M42 lens, some filters, Sony a6000 and Sony A7II.Feedback
Photography today is no longer what you get, is what you would like to get. So, sometimes post-processing and digital enhancements is a nice idea to get great results.
