Sunrise behind All Saints' Church, Godshill

Image Location : All Saints' Church, in Godshill, Isle of Wight.

The original foundations for the church were laid in a flat, easily accessible site; each morning they were found transferred to the hill where the church exists today. Eventually the builders gave up building it in the planned flat location and built it on the hill instead. All Saints is the largest medieval church on the Isle of Wight, and one of the most visited and photographed parish churches in England.

This image was captured at sunrise using a Panasonic Lumix GX8 with a LUMIX G VARIO 100-300mm F/4.0-5.6 lens set to 300mm (equivalent to 600mm on a full frame camera). The camera was on a tripod using manual focus on the church. The camera was set to Aperture Priority f/8 giving a 1/60th of a second exposure at ISO 200 with daylight white balance. The RAW processing and final adjustments were all done in Photoshop CC.
