Second attempt at posting this. I found photobucket great at first and uploading photos was quick. Lately it's been very slow to won't upload at all. So I thought I'd link to photos via my own web space, but I'm having some problems uploading to that too at the moment. Anyhow, for the moment photobucket seems to be cooperating again.
Spent an afternoon at a stately home called Chatsworth House recently. Posted a photo of one of the ornaments I took a picture of in another section to get advice on PP. Thanks evryone who helped me out with that. Thought I'd post shots of a couple of the rooms. May be of interest to some and I'd also be grateful to know how others would tackle shots in such dimly lit, big spaces. I only have the camera's internal flash so I guess I'd have faired better with something more substantial; I need to save up. Both shots were with a K10D and the kit lens 18-55mm.
