pretty window - but I think this would really benefit from tonemapping where we could get more detail out of the church without blowing out the window

you've done a nice job capturing a scene that must have had a sizable dynamic range, I think you've framed it well too. Nice job,

Nice picture, almost even on both sides. Looks a tad crooked but a great photo. Good job.

This feels tilted to the right.

It's so hard to truly capture how marvelous these things are. I like the way you've used the natural framing to add context and balance.

The window imo is far too dull, making me look at the wall texture which is just great instead of the window

If this was an HDR shot it would look outstanding...

I think if the stained glass was the focus of the shot you could have captured it a bit better. The colors seem really saturated and then the clear parts blown out. Underexposure and then using fill flash would have helped that. I see it must have been a difficult environment being that it was probably pretty dark inside.

Too soft. All of the actual detail in the window is lost.

Good composition but the glass is too soft and lacking detail.
