St. Andrew's Cathedral, Sydney

The interior is a harmonious composition in Perpendicular Gothic. Although the building is small, it is given a sense of grandeur by the proportions of the arcade and clerestory, the richness of the moldings, the loftiness of the hammerbeam roof with its blue and vermillion decoration, and the decorative details, which include carved stone ribbons around the nave piers, bearing the names of notables in the early Sydney church. The stone used throughout is Sydney sandstone. The chancel has a newly-restored floor in ornate pattern set with marble and intaglio tiles in the Cosmati style by Fields of London, created under the direction of Gilbert Scott. The rest of the building is paved with encaustic tiles of red and black with small intaglio designs by Mintons of Stoke-on-Trent. (Wikipedia)

A very good HDR... perfect light, great details, and the photo looks "real" which is great, I think a lot of the pictures lose their "soul" through the HDR processing. Great job Christopher.

I sure did ! I did some blending after the HDR tonemapping in Photoshop to reduce the noise and to bring out some more details.
