Original – Coventry Cathedral
Reason
I apologise in advance because I'm probably going to end up spamming FPC with cathedral nominations before long. I recently went on a four day cathedral photography trip funded by Wikimedia UK and photographed a large number of them. Anyway, I thought I'd start with something a bit different. Coventry Cathedral was bombed during WW2 and rebuilt in a modernist style in the 50s. As the main visual interest is split between the view down the aisle and the large stained glass wall at the entrance, I needed to use an off-centred point of view to capture it.

    • I don't believe so. I overheard a guide giving a talk to schoolchildren and he said that the wood was a gift from Canada (there's also a maple leaf just out of frame on the right as a nod to Canada), so I'm guessing it's original from the late 50s/early 60s. It does look in good condition though. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 19:56, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support- This picture makes the cathedral look unreal, in a very good way. The angle is the perfect perspective for the ceiling. Bzweebl (talkcontribs) 22:27, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
