I am in Edinburgh, Scotland right now at the beginning of a photo here. This is the pipe organ in the beautiful St. Gilles Cathedral. I stood at the bottom of this giant musical instrument with a 16mm wide angle lens which exaggerated and elongated the lines. The unique blue ceiling made a strong backdrop. My settings were 1/125, f/4.0, and 1600. I selected a daylight white balance and then, using the color temperature slider in ACR, moved the Kelvin temperature slightly toward the cool end of the spectrum to enhance the deep blue color of the ceiling design.

Jim Steadman - I was at St. Giles last September and also shot photos of the organ. I stood on the other side of the building and shot to avoid any keystoning. I had to adjust a bit in Photo Shop, but the beautiful blue ceiling and red structure of the organ showed well in the final product. Nice work!!
