Location
This image was taken in Truro Cathedral, whilst shooting a series of triple exposures in different city's around Britain.Time
Surprisingly in the middle of the day. Getting good indoor lighting without the use of flash does mean thinking differently to normal photo rules.Lighting
The best light is nearly always the bright magical light just before rain, even indoors it can make things glow. Without this the stone looks dull and lifeless it's just trying to catch that fleeting moment. It's a challenge not being able to use a tripod or flash but it is possible as long as you know your camera's limits.Equipment
This was shot with a Nikon D5300 and a 10-24 wide angle lens without a tripod or flash.Inspiration
I have been visiting cathedrals as part of a long term project using triple exposures to create beautiful symmetry and get people to think differently about religion. Sometimes you just see something so beautiful that you just can't not capture it, having visited Truro Cathedral several times this is the first time I had seen it in such perfect light.Editing
Very little post production was needed just tweaks with highlights and shadows.In my camera bag
I always have my wide angle lens on a nikon D5300 and a 70-300 lens on a second D5300, with a 50mm prime. Also a tripod and Lee filters for outside shots, plus a cable release.Feedback
Lying on the flooright can give you a different perspective or failing that having the camera on the floor with the screen facing up. Expect to have several attempts as symmetry is key and not always easy to get at such strange angles.
