Altar

Interesting light at the Altar. I grabbed this with my Pentax K1000 as I had used up all my 8x10 film.

Film & Developer
Efke 25; Pyrocat-HD
Nicely done, great tones and good details from 35mm film
 
Thanks, everyone!
@mooseontheloose the lighting at first was quite flat so I spent most of my time photographing wood details, and the back room on the right hand side. Then the light changed. The weird reflections on either side of the altar I believe was coming in from the back windows, bouncing off the two triangular panels with stars. Being a one who is used to using the view camera, I wanted to keep the verticals as vertical as I could. Luckily there was a stack of chairs against the wall that elevated me by about 4ft. Hand held shot. I did my best but couldn't quite keep the camera level. The negative is also underexposed. I tried compensating with slightly longer development time, but that only increased the contrast. Oh well... it turned out okay.

@Eric Rose I never noticed it until I had the negative on the light table and loupe in my eye!
 
Posted earlier, but got an error. Tones are nice, along w/ the light.
I'm still getting my head around iso 25 + indoors + hand held. I couldn't do that if I had rigor mortis.
 
Bravo Andrew! 'Getting the noggin & the body to cooperate for a fraction of a second.
