San Francisco de Assisi Mission Church

[Speedster]

"San Francisco de Assisi Mission Church, Rancho de Taos, New Mexico".

Inspired by a mind-blowing sunset we had a few weeks ago here in Santa Fe, New Mexico.  This famous and still active church is adobe (mud + straw), built in 1772-1819, and is often a subject of painters and photographers.  And of course, KeyShooters! 

Modeled in SolidWorks, rendered in KeyShot 5.1.66, only post is the signature.  My own dome in HDR Light Studio, tweaked on the fly with KeyShot HDR Edit.  I exaggerated the textures and lighting, as the goal was not realism, but art.   Prints nicely at the full 10x x 18 gallery print size.

Nicely done! Not sure I like the red filter so much. Hope to see how you capture the front as well.

Yep, the jury is still out on the red.  But it's not a filter- all KeyShot, with the "red" custom dome.  Still playing with it.  I may do the front sometime, but it's not modeled yet.  I've always liked the "back", which interestingly faces the road.
