Such a sweet glow of rich colors in this one, Joe. You caught every nuance of light and tones, too. Beautiful work! :toast:

Really nice.

How wide were you shooting? I would guess you would have to be but from the image it is still hard to tell. Which also tells me a good photographer took a good image.

Like the soft glow of the colors and can feel the spirits that reside in that room.

Great glow and detail...nice intimate scene! What kind of exposure settings would you use on a scene like this?

Really nice, Joe, feels just like being inside a kiva! I'm amazed you got this without blowing highlights. What was the light like above the ground?

Thanks for the comments. I used a 65mm lens, which is a wide angle on the view camera. The exposure was 1 minute long. It was sunny outside the kiva but I was able to poin the camera low enough to avoid hot spots.
