Of course the Episcopal church is across the street from the bar. I hear that they're a very social sect, any time you get four of them together, you're bound to find a fifth. Oh, it's a nice photo too. Though with those dark shadows in contrast with the sunlit side it is one of those cases where I would just autobracket my raw exposures, just in case I ever get around to doing HDR. I don't go for that wild tone mapping HDR style, but there are times it would be nice to be able to pull more detail out of the highlights and shadows if the shot turns out to be a keeper. It occurs to me that with the K-5, it has so much more dynamic range at low ISO, I should increase my bracketing range, at least at low ISO. > > Lovely old church, well captured.
