    Stained Glass

    Here is a photo that I took in the Dom at Worms, Germany. I love how the sun shining thru the window made a star. :-)

    Interesting affect. Maybe it's a sign?

    No, it's a window. (sorry, couldn't resist)

    I really like this pic. My only suggestion would be to try a Shadow/Highlight command if you have Photoshop. It could hurt the image as easily as it could help if there's a lot of noise, but I would try it just to see.

    Michelle,
    I like this subject and and the starry reflection is great here. I'm wondering, if this would be considered lens flare as there was a discussion in another thread about the effect working or not.
    I would try to straighten out the perspective here . . .try to get the lines more parallel with the sides of the frame. Medley's suggestion about using the shadow/highlight filter in Photoshop is a good idea. Bringing out some more shadow detail and bringing down some of the highlights might very well do alot of good in this picture.
    nice work
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    I like the photo. I wished it had more dynamic range, but that is a equipment/film problem, not the photographer ;-)
