Original – The interiof of All Saints, Margaret Street in London England, facing east towards the altar
Reason

It's a fascinating interior photo of a notable (and entirely kaleidoscopic!) London church, well captured with good sharpness and detail. I quote from the article: "Simon Thurley, the Chief Executive of English Heritage, listed All Saints as one of the ten most important buildings in the country.".

For those who crave even more detail, I also took this image which is even more detailed (180 megapixels!). I was tempted to make this the main interior image but the angle of view is less wide and the depth of field is not as good so I didn't think it would make such a good image for the article. Still, the detail is quite amazing if your browser can handle the filesize!

  • Support – Startling. Talk about "high Victorian ostentatiousness [and] obtrusiveness" (from the article). Makes Baroque seem almost austere. Sca (talk) 13:13, 9 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

      • Just reminding you that monkeys in hats is a new FP criterion (in case you forgot and were going to upload more pictures of empty churches). Belle (talk) 23:45, 10 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        • Ahh, well if it's monkeys in hats you want, I have just the thing.. I've been taking lots of photos of monkeys in hats at the tennis recently. ;-) Kidding, I don't mean anything by that selection other than they're all wearing hats and are in various vaguely monkey-like poses or positions! Other than that, there's.. err.. an empty bridge? Ðiliff «» (Talk) 00:23, 11 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
