Best wide-angle lens? Two steps backward. Look for the 'ah-ha'. Ernest Haas
Even though they seem to be underrated on the site, this view of the stained glass is superb. I know how hard it is to set up these shots, so I must congratulate you!

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
This looks better than I remember it. Fabulous job.

Thanks For Sharing ! Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience
From the wikipedia site: The Chagall choir windows in St. Stephan are unique in Germany. Between 1978 and his death in 1985, Russian Jewish artist Marc Chagall created nine stained-glass windows of scriptural figures in luminous blue. The figures depict scenes from the Old Testament, demonstrating to the commonalities across Christian and Jewish traditions. Chagall intended his work to be a contribution to Jewish-German reconciliation, made all the more poignant by the fact that Chagall himself fled France under Nazi occupation. He chose St. Stephan due to his friendship with Monsignor Klaus Mayer, who was then the presiding priest of St. Stephan. Chagall's work has been continued since his death by his pupil Charles Marq and by others.
Captured perfectly Jen. Just great.
Regards, Cornelius.
