This month’s photo was taken in Seaton Delaval Hall in Northumberland, UK. The giant mirror ball is suspended from the ceiling. Levels tweaked in Lightroom & straightened. All very basic edits.

My goodness! why did they hang that up there? Are you sure it isn't a UFO?
Great capture. Wonder how it would look if cropped dramatically... but of course i dont know how to do that... i got it to mask out the interior in lightroom but dont know how to save the masked version   Posted: 06/18/2022 13:33:17

Interesting. In Lightroom click done then export the image.
Apparently they were a very dramatic family & a lot of theatrical stuff around the house. Fab place. Was my first visit but won't be the last

Fascinating image, and very clever of you to spot the opportunity.
Where are you and the camera in the reflection???   Posted: 06/19/2022 12:49:00

OMG, I had to blow the image up 6 steps, and then I finally saw your two arms holding the camera.   Posted: 06/19/2022 13:45:28

I was immediately drawn to this image. There's lots to see - perhaps too much in a sense. The part that doesn't work for me is the ceiling, so I masked that out in this version. Thoughts?   Posted: 06/19/2022 17:44:31

At first this made me dizzy. Admittedly I have aversions to height. That being said, it's a fascinating image of an unusual place.   Posted: 06/21/2022 15:29:43

I have made some change over Tom's 2nd version, by cropping some from top and bottom, darkening the central portion in the back. ALso I brightened the ball a bit to make it stand out.   Posted: 06/22/2022 15:39:09
