Hi,
I need advice on how to go about taking a rather tricky shot.
The subject is the inside of a church dome with an exquisite pattern on the
inside.
Here are some problems/challenges that I face.
The place is huge (approx 50 meters from the church floor to the dome's
apex).
The interior lighting is very problematic, a mxture ot tungsten and
flourescent ligting of various types.
I Want the shot to be symmetrical to enphasise the symmetry of the pattern.
The problem with this is that there is a big silver chandelier hanging from
a chain presicely in the center. To work around this I have arranged to
do the shoot when the chandelier is removed for cleaning in preparation for
the village feast.
I need to use slow film to permit a decent enlargement.
Natural lighting is somewhat uneven.
My flash setup is one AF500FTZ plus I can borrow 2 METZ CT60s
I was thinking of a bulb exposure in total darkness and using multiple
flash bursts to illuminate the interior.
Suggestions please! This shoot will happen between now and August 6, the
next chance for a re-shoot will be next year so I'd like to get it right
first time!
