, 2 sec f/9.0, ISO 100, tripod. Sorano, Italy.

Il Duomo, la cattedrale di Sovana Il Duomo di Sovana sorge appena alla fine del paese. L'epoca della diocesi di Sovana è incerta: quasi sicuramente è precedente al Vescovo Maurizio, il primo citato in un documento del 680. La cattedrale, ora Concattedrale dell'attuale diocesidi Sovana, Pitigliano e Orbetello, è costruita su un leggero lievo. La cripta del Duomo di Sovana Sottostante al Duomo, nell'area del presbiteo, vi è la cripta in pietra tufacea, tuttora ancora esistente e visitabile, con ingresso esterno ed interno. La costruzione della Cattedrale avvenne probabilmente come trasformazione e accrescimento di una chiesa già presente e durò secoli, infatti possiamo notari più stili: longobardo, romanico e gotico. La diffusa presenza dello stile romanico, conferma il periodo centrale della costruzione nell' XI secolo, durante l'espansione degli Aldobrandeschi e del Papato di Gregorio VII (1073-1085). Interno del Duomo di Sovana La chiesa è caratterizzata da pilastri a fiasco con capitelli che dividono la chiesa in tre navate. Le volte a crociera di quella centrale confermano la costruzione nel pieno Duecento. La cupola, con il suo passaggio in ottagono è simbolo della spiritualizzazione della materia verso il sentiero che conduce al Divino. Le decorazioni riproducono forme vegetali o animali, rari volti umani o soggetti biblici. Quasi completamente costruito in tufo, ad eccezione delle pietre alternate bianche e nere usate per i pilastri delle navate. Possiamo notare anche l'uso di manufatti di epoche precedenti, provenienti da altre chiese di Sovana, come alcuni capitelli di ispirazione paleocristiana.

Internal Quest I missed, nice shoot
Hello

also love to me, the exposure is excellent. I find, however, that it is slightly biased downwards, in the sense that maybe you've added too the floor at the expense of beautiful cross vaults. I imagine that a pdr lower and slightly turned up would have made you some more problems with falling lines (here perfectly managed!) but PROBABLY would make it more harmonious snap.
however, I like

The shot is very nice
Compliments
Quoto Pandamonium; I too would have slightly raised the framing

Greetings

Many thanks to all of the most welcome comments
It has quite rightly pointed out the framing problem, that day I thought about it a lot, the cathedral is very small I was cornered by an eight mm, I preferred to keep my despite knowing bubble optical problems to which I went meeting, at pp I had very little to correct the lines, but still a bit 'of the columns have been lost, it was a matter of choice in terms of sacrifice, I was in doubt until the end.
I will treasure your notes, thank you for your time and I wish you a good day :-)

I think it is a PDR problem and then to raise the point up, however I think the point of recovery was not perfectly central level to give a symmetrical view of the scene, this comes across the center line into bricks placed herringbone of fish that goes to the altar, which remains slightly on the right.
As regards the pdr down toward the pavement rather than upward toward the times believe is dictated by a purely subjective taste in composing the scene.

Hello Claudio, here he was not perfectly aligned with the altar and the apse (the center of the image),
the vanishing lines are slightly to the left; see also the left from the first column that is closest to the lower edge of that of dx. Apart from that it is a beautiful image of an austere interior with a pleasant lighting.
A salutone! Sergio ;-) :-P

I really like the management of light, with respect to the shooting point personally think that helps a lot in this type of photo symmetry rather than the "height" of the frame.
Specifically (as Julian says) it was necessary to put also on the bubble to the center line on the floor which in this case seemed to be there on purpose ... it is nevertheless true that even when you're sure you have considered all aspects and set all things in order correct there is always a detail that escapes you and you know it only when it is too late; then you say, next time you will see that I think about it ... and then you beat another detail :-D
And it is also there the beautiful ... you never stop ;-)
Hello and good weekend.

Thank you all for the kind words, I will strive for longer next time, the middle line in the picture you can clearly see it in reality in the church there was very little light that you have to put glasses to view :-D
The great thing about these places is that they are just bare remained intact as it once was, enhancing the purity of its architecture
Good day
