HDR in Paris: Sacré-Cœur Basilica

by Akseli Niemelä on Feb 17, 2012

On the last day in Paris we visited Montmartre region. Perhaps the most famous building in that area is Sacré-Cœur Basilica, a big Roman Catholic church on top of butte Montmartre hill. Usually in churches use of flashes and tripods are forbidden. However, in Sacré-Cœur the photographing in whole was forbidden. Well, of course I sneaked camera in and put it to the back rest of wooden church chair. The staff didn’t see me and got this pic as result. It’s not perfect but I think it’s good considering no tripod was used.

Thank you! And yeah, it’s forbidden, I got caught :P I didn’t use tripod though but supported the camera on church chair. Many others were taking pictures as well. I think it’s a stupid rule not to allow photography in churches. I might very well write an article about this later.
