Hagia Sophia, Istanbul. Amazing to think that this structure dates from 537 AD. The minarets are not part of the original structure.

I recently needed to draw a building with Byzantine-like architectural details, and that was one of the buildings I used for reference.

Tomorrow, I will post up a photo I took of the interior (one pic a day right ). I was blown away when I walked into that building. Awe inspiring doesn't even cover it.

Wow, you weren't exaggerating! That's incredible!

I'm also hesitant to post the photo I was planning for today, because it's an interior shot as well and looks pretty meager compared to that! But I'll do it anyway:



I was testing the tilt/shift simulation that was included in the latest firmware update for my camera. Lots of fun!

All the more incredible when you think it was built almost 1500 years ago. I was really happy to have my new lens for that photo as there wasn't a lot of light inside the Hagia Sophia. So that was taken at f/2.8 with a focal length of 17mm.
