Short visit to Rochester and the Cathedral yesterday, as my son had an interview. Lovely place to take the camera.
I have not tried taking photos in a cathedral before and found the mix of different light sources and the old converging verticals challenging, especially when a lot of the horizontals and verticals aren't!

Found in the cathedral gardens.

The wall and column really are like that! Don't know how the roof stays up.

A nice set, love the third shot, nice and richly coloured.

The lighting was interesting as the high windows allowed some daylight, the stained glass changed the colour a bit and the artificial light all seemed to be tungsten! Add to that, the light levels were a bit low.

Lovely shots. The statue is my favourite.

How out of true are those arches!
