I've been working on this shot for several years now. It's taken from inside an old church in Cades Cove, Smokey Mounts NP. The first time I took this shot I didn't have a tripod (DUH) but took the shot anyway just to get in planning mode. It of course was a complete disaster. This is about the third try (The second try with a tripod did not turn out very well either. ) The only lighting in the church is from the windows and front door. It was full daylight outside. The glass was back lighted. This is the best so far. Next time I shoot it I plan on using my 35mm, f/1.8G lens, which I did not have for this shot. EXIF Data: D90, 18-105mm VR (turned off for tripod use), cable release, Focal Length 48mm, Focus Distance 18 ft., F/stop 22, ISO 400, Shutter Speed 1/5 sec., no filters, Auto White Balance, Adobe RGB, Three shot Photomatix HDR, PP in Aperture 3.
