Salisbury Cathedral Font Symmetry

This picture was taken way back in 2011. I came across it when going through old pictures to make a second backup of all my pictures on to a 4 terabyte separate hard drive.

Salisbury Cathedral is very Photographer friendly. There are no restrictions except during services and in the part housing the Magna Carta. Tripods can be freely used provided other visitors are not obstructed. I got there at 9.00 am for people free views. It was people free despite what looks like a man in a suit having a nap on the plinth on the left. That was a statue, part of a sculpture exhibition they had on at the time.

The picture was taken with a Sony A700 with a Sigma 10-20 wide angle zoom at 11mm. Taken on a Tripod. 3 raw images 2EV spacing. Outputted in Photomatix using detail enhancer.

Processing used Topaz adjust and DeNoise and the image was straightened and cropped in Photoshop for better symmetry.
