The magnificent ceiling, organ and lighting of the famous St Stephens Church of Vienna. Utilised a UWA lens on this capture.
The structure of San Bernardo alle Terme is similar to the Pantheon, since it is cylindrical, with a dome and an oculus. The edifice has a diameter of 22 meters. The octagonal dome coffers recalls that of the Basilica of Maxentius. The interior is graced by eight statues of saints, each housed in wall niches, the work (c. 1600) of Camillo Mariani. These are a good example of the so-called International Mannerism. The Chapel of St Francis is an addition to the ancient rotunda, and contains a sculpture of St Francis by Giacomo Antonio Fancelli.
The church was built on the remains of a circular tower, which marked a corner in the southwestern perimeter wall of the Baths of Diocletian (its pendant is today part of a hotel building, 225 meters southeast from San Bernardo alle Terme). These two towers flanked a large semicircular exedra; the distance between the towers attests to enormous scale of the original structure.
This ceiling design was entirely painted using Faux painting techniques to render the flat ceiling surface into a dimensional masterpiece. Even the placement of the one window in this hallway (which is behind the camera) was taken into consideration when rendering a cast-shadow along the "upper" part of each geometric diamond, creating the illusion that the painted moldings were casting a shadow behind them.
Inside the Doge's Palace. You can imagine what the actual rooms looked like (and sympathise that no photos were allowed).
Want a fast and easy way to use lights and tulle to create a spooky haunted cave effect with big impact?
For this project you'll need a string of lights and a few yards of tulle. I like orange lights. They reflect really well off the tulle and give the area you're decorating a spooky glow.
I used a string of 60 Halloween lights from Target, and three yards of matte black tulle.
