This is my highest rated photo of this challenge. I like the architecture, the lighting and the angle of this scene. Not only does this picture give me a sense of sacred, it also captures "Holiness". A compelling piece.

Nice lighting capture, and the tones are so effective in eliciting a sacred feeling. Subtle, lovely, powerful image! 9

8, or 9 I'm pondering. I wonder if it's too dark for many here? It certainly isn't for me ... my problem with it is that it's perhaps a little straight-forward. A great moment of lighting to capture, placing the sunlight onto that line of pillars, and capturing the loom of the rest of the building. Great focus and detail, of course, but you don't get a ten because in the end I don't quite like it as much as my favourite of this challenge, and I find my second favourite a little preferable to this, but whether that's a whole point's worth ...

WOW, brilliant... This remind me of a FMV scene from a high class computer game... I love how the light just catches the stone across the middle of the picture, I can sense the colours in the stained glass windows too at the top. Well deserved 10!

wonderful job! your perspective and the placement of the column just off center to the left, supporting the arch that finds its way to the uper left corner, brings great balance to the whole image. 8
