- It is, they're fairly common in the more touristic churches and cathedrals in the UK. Temple Church was built by the Knights Templar as their English headquarters and was one of the sites in the Da Vinci Code, so it attracts its share of visitors. There's usually not much more than a few postcards, candles and religious architecture books though, to help generate funds to stay open. Many of the central London churches no longer have a congregation to pay for the church's upkeep, although I'm not sure that's the case with this church as it's still used by two of the four English Inns of Court, which are a kind of anachronistic vestige of a time when all the major professions had their own guilds in London (count them, 110 different guilds!).

Oppose QI. I dont like copping artifical warm ligth with strong blow of cold dayligth. Upper vitrage isnt in focus - DoF issue or focused on wall ? --Mile (talk) 15:18, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
- Not sure what you mean. If this is what the interior looks like, what do you expect me to do with the interior lighting/white balance? Also, the upper part is in focus, it's just softer because of the perspective distortion. This is normal for wide angle panoramas. Consider that although the top is less sharp than the middle, overall it is still sharper than what is normally possible with a single photo, and is 25 megapixels.

Comment I prefer warm-dark tones in church. In this situation, i would evade high noon shooting. Or would try lower temp in software a bit. Its same with facade, photo bellow. 3 pm in the end of april, not good time to get nice tones-colors. But yes, much better matrix than single shot. --Mile (talk) 18:33, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
Support great image. Not every church is indeed in a warm-dark tone. That's how this church is. --Wladyslaw (talk) 06:57, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
