HI everyone. Thank you so much* for the many renditions - I am quite overwhelmed by how many of you shared your vision of how this one should (or could) look.
@dqpcoxeas, my initial impression of yours was “too dark,” but it is now really growing on me precisely because it draws the eye immediately to the projected image; the image, which looks beautifully reconstructed, has however quite a purple cast.
@ggbutcher, thanks for your slant on things
@Thomas_Do - I like the warm tones, which are true to the stone when observed from outside in natural light. Inside, mostly with artificial illumination, the tones were not so warm. However as an aesthetically pleasing take on the building, its a winner.
@XavAL, thank you for the neon highlighter colours!
@david - thank you for the exposure stacking … a very nice rendition of detail in the vaulting.
@age - a very nice rendition of the projected image on the column.
@hatsnp - the lines, tones and textures certainly make for a captivating monochrome treatment; thank you.
@Claes - thank you, your choice of crop and the black border very nicely lead the eye to the projected image. Moreover, it is only now that I can identify fully the white dove above the head of Jesus -the window must be a depiction of the Baptism of Jesus. Again, the human foot at the bottom is clearly discernable. So nice job on the reconstruction.
@marter, the difficulty is choosing what is most important in the image … and in that respect, I am now feeling less pleased with the capture - I was probably trying to have my cake and eat it also. You certainly achieved the aim you stated: colourful windows and visible stone structure.
Have I missed anyone (apart from discussion about different software capabilities)? I hope not. Thank you, again, for your sharing your creative thoughts.
