A religious experience
Uploaded: March 24, 2006
I took this photo at Montreal's Notre Dame Cathedral. I had to take it handheld, since no tripods are allowed. I used an ISO setting of 1600 and saved it in RAW so that I could keep as much tonal information as possible.

Thanks! This was the first time I shot using RAW. I definitely understand the benefits now. I was quite amazed at how much color information there was, given the high ISO setting. #2570212Inge S. Lasmana March 24, 2006
Very beautiful details and wonderful color, Irene! #2570372Roger Bernabo March 24, 2006
Lovely image irene and what a great tip... 1600 in RAW; I rarely shoot in raw but that would certainly help if one were using ISO 1600-- thanks! #2570442Irene Suchocki March 24, 2006
Roger, I think RAW is definitely the way to go for interior shots. There's very little noise and you can adjust the color temperature and tint too, which helps greatly when shooting under incandescent or fluorescent light. #2570597Melissa G. Meiselman March 24, 2006
