You've controlled the light very well in the York Minster interior shots, particularly in #2 where you've not blown the window highlights yet managed to keep fine detail in the ceiling.

Same as Smeggy for me #2 & #5 (though is the WB off or is that your PP) ?
I think #1 would have worked better in landscape and I like the last two as well but think you need to bring out the shadows a little more.

You've done a lot better at Whitby than I managed, ( though, in my defense I was trying to keep the camera dry! ).
I love number 5, it is special!

You've done much better at Whitby than I've ever managed.
Would also go for #2 & #5
Was up there 2 years ago in November and it was closed, best I managed was to hold up my K10D on a monopod over the wall on a 2 sec timer. Very hit and mainly miss and every one disappointing

Overall like the set. However I must be missing something. For me the first arch in #5 should either all be in, or appear to be purposely cropped. At the moment, with just a small amount at the top out of frame it looks accidental and detracts from the image.

All the Abbey images have been developed using the various presets in Lightroom (with the exception of #6).Same as Smeggy for me #2 & #5 (though is the WB off or is that your PP) ?

Good point with the shadows, something that I need to learn

Father Ted, there were a few people around and also a few spots of rain (which I kept wiping off the GND filter).You've done a lot better at Whitby than I managed, ( though, in my defense I was trying to keep the camera dry! ).

Thanks Bernard, we were fairly lucky in that not that many were about on a Tuesday in early May. I can imagine the place being full of tourists You've done much better at Whitby than I've ever managed.

Valid point Alan, although I cannot recall why it was composed as such.Overall like the set. However I must be missing something.

There was also a fellow Pentaxian on site at this time, although I never got the opportunity to say hello.

I'm sure that both venues have been shot to boredom, so I've tried a few experiments with the Abbey pictures.
All with the Sigma 10-20, with the exception of 4 (Sigma 18-50).
