Description
A view of the interior of the courthouse tower, looking up. There is a lot of very colorful & decorative tile work, as well as many other interesting architectural details that have a strong Spanish-Moorish influence.
It was fairly dark inside & (as usual) I didn't have my tripod with me, so I had to shoot at 1600 ISO to get enough light at a shutter speed that I could manage. I tend to shoot mostly outdoor scenes & definitely need to work on my indoor skills...

i like the atmosphere you've created here
Fantastic atmosphere great photo !
beautiful ( but very red)
Great shot love the warm colours
The grain doesn't bother me at all. This is a pretty decent indoor shot! If you added the red ... all well and good, and it's a nice touch. If you didn't intend that much red, you can tone it down with curves. (I'm sure you know that ... but Juliette's comment made me think to mention it.)
You've captured the essence of this unique public place. We saw something similar in Tuczon. Think you did great with ISO 1600. (My Canon has me spoiled, ISO range is 125-25,600)
Wow – more impressive inside – great angle!!!
Yes, the POV is spectacular and very dynamic, as is the red tint of the light. Beautifully done, especially since indoor shooting isn't your usual milieu!
I have similar problems with inside photography but this capture really works well for me - love that hanging chandelier!
