Beautifully framed Debbie and I love the deep shadows and the highlights on the candles.

  Thanks Aggie. This Cathedral opens up to photographers for its candlelit nights every now and then. I’ve been twice and this is my favourite shot.

A bit of sepia or natural colour Debbie?

  Not natural! I played a bit with lightroom – reduced vibrance, reduced saturation of all the warm colours, addition of some split toning, and a jiggle of the tone curve.
