Wooo... this is fantastic. The level of detail & lighting, also fantastic. Only words of "applaud" have for it. Excelent job, Paul.

Beauty is no quality in things themselves. It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them, and each mind perceives a different beauty.

I like it Paul. The exposure and composition are first rate. It’s looks classy and opulent.

What a marvelous photo of this elegant interior. First rate photography. You composed this brilliantly covering this huge expanse with outstanding clarity of detail. I don't see how this could have been done any better.

You have a very good eye, my friend. I agree with Muggsy and add that I can see loads of ways to get this wrong. You got it spot-on. I'm getting rather a large folder of your work now. Thanks for all your posts.

Hi Paul, this photo reminds me of the last scene in the movie "Titanic", of course with the absense of people, and as equally stimulating and beautiful!! This image was created with the skill and talent of a superior photographer! You have made it almost possible for me to hear the music! Pretty impressive, I might add! Lovely work Paul, Sincerely, Marilyn

I can hear the clicking of my shoes on the staircase and I can feel the softness of the satin gown I am wearing as I hold it so I don't trip on it, lol. I can smell the sweet perfumes...I await the sweet sounds!
Tks, it was a great time!

Wow ... just ... wow.

Robert and wheedance used the operative words for this image ... "opulent" and "opulence." Indeed.

Definition of opulent/opulence: "sumptuous living" ... "deluxe: rich and superior in quality."

And from reading further on the commentaries, you successfully transported a number of people to this magical room. Including this viewer.

Beautiful work.

It may not be the same opera house but I can just hear the phantom theme in my head when I see this. A wonderful image and a fitting tribute. Top stuff.
