Before & After: Christmas Offertory


I took this photo at church on the Sunday after Christmas during the offertory.  The light coming in the stained glass was magical and I couldn't resist.  But I snapped it off so quickly that I didn't get a chance to adjust my settings so it was way too dark.  I took it with my Rebel XT and I edited it in Paint Shop Pro 9.

    Beautiful! It can be such a challenge to lighten photos sometimes. If only life provided perfect lighting opportunities! :)
