Tetbury church.
This is one of those ones where whichever way up it is the perspective takes a bit of working out. Blame the cameraman I guess :)
I decided to rotate it to landscape, partly because that works better with Flickr, but also to avoid the "uncertainty fail" problem where something slightly out looks a mistake rather than the creative decision which it was {cough}.
I could also pretend that changing the perspective encourages us to see the textures and patterns anew. Maybe. If I were brave...
Tetbury is an interesting little town about ten miles away. It became wealthy on the wool trade and had the unusual advantage that the townspeople managed to negotiate to buy the town from the local aristocrat who owned it. Which meant they kept the profits from the wool trade. Good move.
So the church is unusually large and splendid. This is a picture of the gallery taken from below with a lovely carved balustrade.
The name Tetbury means Tet's hill in Anglo-Saxon. Who Tet was is anyone's guess but presumably he's a distant cousin of the Egyptian Pharoah Tut. Anyway the moral of the story is if an ancient Angle approaches you and professes to be about to hill you, be alarmed :)
Oh and did I mention that Prince Charles lives in Tetbury? I usually do :) (Sorry. Old joke...)
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image! Happy Friday :)
[Taken in dim sunlight through the church windows; handheld by contortionist.
Developed in Photolab 3 emphasising the wood textures in the fore and accentuating the colours (the stonework behind was yellow against the cyan of the wood), so that I could then control the strength of the background in the B&W conversion.
Into Affinity for sharpening (not USM; High Pass/Linear blend and a touch of Clarity).
Cropped to accentuate the gallery and get rid of distractions like spotlights in the ceiling.
Converted in Silver Efex going for a low key look with a colour filter to take down the background masonry.
Toned with Orange/Teal but lightly.
Slight dark burnt (darkened) edges.]
Bee-eaters (Merops apiaster) photographed from the lowest opening in the camouflage hide in Greece.
Check out the difference from the photo of them from a higher perspective in the links below the line, and how much more interesting the lowest ones are!

Paul Bril (1554-1626) - Perspective of the sea with sailboats and fishermen (1611) - Ambrosiana Art Gallery - Milan
Nel corso della sua visita a Roma nel 1610, Federico Borromeo chiede a Bril una copia della Prospettiva di mare che il pittore fiammingo aveva appena terminato per Giovan Battista Crescenzi, oggi conservata a Bruxelles. Realizzato con alcune varianti entro il settembre del 1611, il dipinto venne pagato cinquanta scudi d’oro. Successivamente il Bril realizzò un altro Porto di mare per Scipione Borghese. Federico ricorda quest’opera nell’atto di donazione del 1618 come una delle più alte realizzazioni del pittore fiammingo. Il dipinto vive di un profondo scorcio prospettico e di un intenso luminismo, entro i quali si distendono a perdita d’occhio scogliere, castelli, uomini e imbarcazioni.
During his visit to Rome in 1610, Frederick Borromeo asked Bril a copy of the Sea Perspective that the Flemish painter had just finished for Giovan Battista Crescenzi, today preserved in Brussels. Made with some variations by September 1611, the painting was paid fifty gold shields. Later the Bril built another sea port for Scipione Borghese. Frederick recalls this work in the act of donation of 1618 as one of the highest achievements of the Flemish painter. The painting lives of a deep perspective and intense luminism, within which cliffs, castles, men and boats stretch out as far as the eye can see.

Sydney Sails | Perspective Shot
This is a pic of the Sydney Opera House I took one morning when wandering around. I like to challenge myself to find a different perspective on these famous landmarks, and in this case I got right up close to capture the detail in the sails.

Whilst down in London one day I was taking photos, then I stumbled across this building. I loved how you could see the sky through the building, so took a different perspective of the building from underneath.
