This is a very good example of just how eccentric the owner was when building the castle. This is just a hallway up to the 2nd floor and you can see all the tilework that was put on the walls.....and even embedded in the cieling! 7 image HDR with PP'ing done is CS5. Saved at 65 quality to fit

Roman, very cool perspective. The textures in the ceiling really give this hallway a great feel. Love the inviting flow of this, not sure I want to go upstairs or down:S3:. That Light bulb in URC is really nice touch....................Were on a ladder?

Thanks Jay! No ladder.....1 step up......very low ceilings in this area!

By the way, what lens did you use.................great work keeping the lines vertical, not so easy from a high perspective.

17mm....had to run lens correction is CS5.....although most times I don't mind the WA distortion!

Roman, these images are killer composition! Love the perspective as you have captured with the whimsical tiles and the ceiling. Excellent processing.

You've captured the feel of this eccentric building very nicely. The HDR works well here.

Hi Roman, another great example in the use of HDR and composition. Two LL bringing you to the lit backround with a wide enough scene to put you in the hallway. Very well executed!!
