3 and 8 are awesome!!! What I love about 2 is the elderly lady standing off to the side with her hands clasped! Love that!

great job!

[Grace]

4,5 look a teensy bit hazey..

[Toogy]

Erik, what church is that? it looks very familiar to me.

And #3 rocks!! did you have the camera right on the ground for that?

[liza]

Love 3,6,7, and 8. That church is beautiful.

[SuzyView]

All are terrific, but 3 is really wonderful. Got down low, didn't you?

[ErikM]

Thanks all!!!

I did get down very low for #3... I was actually laying right on the floor!

The church is called St. Stanislaus. It in in Hamilton, Ontario.

I agree 5 is a little hazy. I was using a CP and wasn't quite 90 degrees to the sun. Lesson learned :) #4 doesn't seem hazy to me.... ?

[Woogie]

Wow, very nice, Erik. I love the colors and the composition. 3, 5, 6, 7, and 8 wonderful.

For #3, given the reflection in the floor, i'd probably have taken a portrait shot as well. A good series.

Great minds think alike? ;) I took one in portrait as well :) I'll toss it up soon! Thanks Tim!

[mizuno]

Nice shot.

[MrsOpie]

I like the entire series but I must say that #3 and #4 jumped out to me.

[joshbehan]

what is the future like?

[joshbehan]

4,5 look a teensy bit hazey..

this was my first thought too, a little flat, but other than that, to quote mizuno: nice shots

[restech]

Hi Erick I thikn on 4 and 5 you could do quick pp on them to de-haze (I don't know if there is a word for that) them

[ErikM]

Thanks for the comments everyone.

Just arrived at work and on this monitor (which is a piece of sh**) I can definitely see that #5 is VERY hazy. Don't notice much on #4 though... I think the veil creates a hazy feel. I will re-process #5 and fix that one up :)

[Bailly Photography]

Great shots, #3 and #5 are my two favs.

[picturecrazy]

wow what a church. wish we had some of those here. Ontario has much more history than the west. nice work... love the two church shots. two is doing nothing for me though. I dunno if it's just me, but 6 & 7 have imbalanced whites? It looks like you were going for a warmer look which is fine, but it looks more reddish than warm orangish to me.

[sam0329]

#3 is super nice! love the rest also. :)

[ErikM]

Here is the shot that you requested Tim. I think its my favorite of the day so far!

Can't believe this is f2.8, ISO 1600!!!

and here is another that was taken just a few minutes before the shot above.

[picturecrazy]

wow. I hope I get to shoot there someday...

[ErikM]

Ya Lloyd it really is a beautiful church. Lovely lighting to work with for sure!

[picturecrazy]

wouldn't have guessed such a beautiful place would exist in a dirty kinda town like Hamilton. (I used to live there)
your shots do the place justice. fantastic job.

[ErikM]

Thanks Lloyd that means a lot coming from you. I have always enjoyed viewing your images and I have taken many notes on your work :)

hey, I'm here to learn just as much from you! go canada! :)

[jessiper]

Would love to see more of that reflection on #3! 8 is cool, too.

[jessiper]

Oops, now I see that you added the vertical shot of the floor, very cool place!

[Jonny]

Square crop on four me thinks.

[kbyrd8455]

3,4,5,8, are amazing to me.
