Christ Church Cathedral III

I've posted a couple of pictures of the outside of Christ Church Cathedral but I was a little daunted by the interior. First, I was a little shy of taking pictures inside. However, when I went inside there were some very nice people there who said I was perfectly welcome to take some pictures since there was no service or other activities. Secondly, as can be seen, taking photos inside a cathedral presents some difficult problems of lighting and perspective/focus. Anyhow, it's beautiful inside and I hope this photo suggests a little of the peace and awe that this church inspires.

  2. I'd be daunted too Benjamin. I'm glad you managed it.

  3. I'm glad you inquired, because it really is marvelous, and I'm sure they're proud of it. I like the contrasting use of dark and light in the arch structures. You did a fine job, Benjamin, as always.

  4. Oh I think it is a great shot! We are visiting Victoria later this week for our anniversary and I can't wait to peek inside of this church. Could you make any other recommendations on great places to photograph?
