It was a gray day that threatened rain, so it was back to Glasgow Cathedral and I was able to try out my 35mm 1.8 lens, it was a new experience moving to get a picture instead of just zooming in or out. I hope you like them

These are all so well composed and I like your perspectives on these. You did well inside with that new lens!
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.

Glorious shots Bill. I love the lighting & compo on these. The stained glass is particularly impressive.

Hello Bill ------ I think you pick a perfect place to try out your new lens ... it's a super fast lens and it's great for low lights ... the clarity on these images is superb .. color, composition and perspective ------ all there ..... very very nice

[fstopMike]

Thanks Fred, I have taken pictures in here before but these came out quite well in the dark.

Thanks Hayward, there was no sun coming through the windows so my new lens really did impress me

Thanks Mike, I really am enjoying this lens, I would have liked to tried it on a tripod but not allowed in Cathedral

Thanks Jack, I hope to improve as I get to know it better.

What a magnificent old church! I love your perspective in each one of these -- it really shows off the amazing lighting. Lovely set, Bill.

These are great Bill. I like the colours and the composition and if thats down to the 35mm, then well done to it as well.
Your pictures have lifted my spirits after a washed out weekend here in the N.W.
The best I managed was to iron am load of shirts shirts while watching the second series of 24.

Thanks Steve, I primarily bought the lens for inside low light pictures and it certainly does the job.
