I paid a visit to Southwark Cathedral in London yesterday and spotted these finely stacked chairs as an abstract. It gave me the option of using a rating of an ISO 3200 with the GR due to the available light on offer.

Anyway, I had no worries about noise either, it was all very pleasant.

Fantastic photo. The second quote in your signature certainly applies to it.

Thanks very much for looking and commenting, guys. I appreciate it. I hadn't bagged an abstract shot for such a long time so I was happy about getting this one...
I'm laughing at what you said Mike-P...Anyway, I was amazed at how tightly these chairs were stacked!

Here's a split-toned B&W conversion, with a few tweaks...
